I feel they are exploiting their children and risking that it may affect them in a negative way.

I'm thinking of music, classical kind, where it's usually the dedicated mother who attends their child's classes, drives them to and fro, supports them financially every step of the way, provides them with a balanced home life, etc. So if anything does eventually come of it I'm sure their devotion deserves a reward. Not all situations are like that but if you watch any music competitions most contestants have the background support. My opinion.

5 I'm not a fan of it if the child doesn't truly love what they are doing...The parents shouldn't push their kid because they want the kid to get rich and famous...It's hard enough having a job as an adult, couldn't imagine having a job as a kid...especially the pressure of supporting your family .
