Eh. There is plenty of time in life for people do to things that they don’t want to do. The nice thing about being young is that you don’t have responsibilities and you can do the things you want to do.

You are not wrong, but it is not one or the other, it is some of both.

Wow! Just wow. Your statement is way too broad. Some semblance of responsibility should be taught at a young age, even before that first day in school. Oh, sorry, I should have read that with the /s tag.
Actually in my experience by the time most people figure out that they can do things they don't want to do many of the opportunities in life have passed them by.
I want my kids to have the opportunity to pursue anything they may wish to try in life and I want to instill the self discipline to accomplish their goals.
I have great memories of my childhood and I want them to be kids and to be able to look back with the same fondness I do. I am very tuned into to them and make sure they can do the things they want but I also want them to learn to do the things they need to do to be successful at whatever they pursue.
