I try to enjoy theirs, while exposing them to as much as possible. I don’t expect them to like what I do - that’s what friends are for. Although I hope to find at least one or two passions we can share.

not a parent but, for me, i won’t mind that definitely supporting what they wanna pursue and if it doesn’t go well, i then come in to advice them on what they can do but would never force my passion on my children

When they have passions that are not mine, it's an opportunity for me to learn new things about the world and expand my horizon. The passions you have will rub off on them anyway, and it will bring new dimensions of it to your life as a parent. But I agree with @nonlinear.eth & @links: they are on their path and it's my job to help them find the path they enjoy most.

Oh they probably won’t. Or they will but in their own way. My kiddo got his love of music from me — but his musical taste is different than mine now. BUT that means he now will come to me and say “new J Cole song feature just dropped — want to listen to it?” (Which literally just happened 30 min ago) And no matter how hard I try, he just isn’t interested in blockchain/crypto etc

I try to listen to them anyway. The other thing is not to impose my ideas. I listen to my children's ideas without denying them and try to convey my own opinions to them.
