Parents don't care. Supportive both financially and mentally etc but have never been pressured to do anything at all. I put enough pressure on myself and I think they know that. Best way to go!

Same here :thumbup:
 
I think I suggested it one day long ago to my parents when I was 10 years old, and they have held me to my word ever since. I have also suggested that I wanted to be a dancer, a cook, and a teacher, love how those were never brought up again. So while my parents have not "forced me" they have supported me a little overzealously.
