Thanks for at least providing some constructive points to consider. I'm not sure what I want my kids to do when I have them one day but I decided now is the time to consider it. Don't want to wait till the last minute before figuring out what path to let them take. I have nothing to live for, so I want to live for my future kid(s) and attempt to give them a successful future.

Right now I'm in my college waiting for class, and as I look around the student lounge I can't help but wonder if these people, including myself, will do something noteworthy with life. But what I'm thinking is that to have my kid individual that stands out from the rest, I need to do something unorthodox. Trying unorthodox things is dumb if I don't research stuff, so that is why I am here.

One thing I wanted to address if that you can't control what your children like. Is that really true? Sure if they are already grown then you can't force anything on them, but if they are developing, even newborn, you can do something to influence what they like and dislike. One thing is for sure, I want my kid(s) to dislike drugs and anything harmful to them.

Also I wouldn't want to force them to do anything. The better word here is influence, even discipline. My parents pulled me out of soccer, piano, and violine because I asked them to. At age 8, I hated them because I wasn't good at them right away. I wish my parents really hammered the idea that I need to improve into my head rather than letting me run away from those things when they get hard. Now I have no skills, I'm not smart, athletic, or anything impressive because I got what I wanted as a kid. I love my parents and all that they've done for me of course, but now I want to do something for my kid for them to rise above the rest since I ended up a mediocre individual.
