They didn't at all. My dad's a dentist and my mom's a teacher, both of which are careers I have zero interest in. I just followed my gut.
My parents always wanted me to get the best education, but they also would have supported me when being a carpenter, nurse or car mechanic would have been my choice.
I just didn't have that kind of relationship with them, I don't recall it being discussed much, if ever - thank baby Jesus I had a full scholarship because if I had to rely on family that money would have had some Titanic anchor chains attached and there would have been some damn influence
