[quote=Anonymous]We all have regrets. I refused to continue with piano as a teen, but there is no way my mother could have pushed me into playing more. I regret my own decision, not her behavior. But I also recognize that if I had played more, I would have missed out on other activities I did during that time that I really loved doing. So it's not really a regret - it's a "I wish I could have had more time than 24 hrs in one day!" sort of thing :-) Don't take your children's comments personally. Also bear in mind that their opinions in their 20s won't be their opinions at 30 or 40. Adult evolve and with maturity and experience understand their childhood better and get more perspective on it. In my 20s, I blamed my parents for a lot of things. Now in my 40s, I realize they did their best within their limitations and personal issues. [/quote]
