When one has no expectations then one is without inner guidance. Like it or not we all have a purpose. Sometimes that purpose is to help guide others to their purposes.
As a parent, it is job one to guide your child. Part of guiding your child is to give to him or her clear expectations. When a child knows what is expected of him/her it sets the ground work for an adult who has a high level of compentency. Muddled expectations leave children without a sure sense of direction. You can expect children to rebel against instructions but when you remain firm they learn the art of guidance.
This thought came to me this morning as I enteracted with my mother and her teenage charge.
