In some cultures, children are rapidly told that if they work hard, they can achieve anything they want. This trend is driven because children will get motivated to achieve something that they want through hard work. However, there is a disadvantage if children are often told such as some children will get stressed.

The main reason is that in the future this child will be stronger and never give up, and more responsible for what they have already achieved. For instance, when Maria was still a kid, her parents told Maria that if you wanted to get the toys, you have to do some chores such as brooming and cleaning their room.

For example, Sharon was told by their parents that if you wanted a gadget, you should help their fathers work, such as helping to serve the customers. But, after Sharon already assisted her father, she does not get the phone that she expected, in the end her mental will get down and angry and she trust issued with their parents.

Nevertheless, there is also disadvantages, such as disappointment with their parents because did not get what they expected.
