There is a forfeiture of a level autonomy in relationships, particularly once kids are involved. I think it's a worthwhile tradeoff in the long run. I see it in investment terms. Save now for future returns, while receiving dividends.

Dangerous way to start, although it's a common wish (your kid follows in "your footsteps"). But you need to support the kid's bent, not what you want. I specifically knew this one guy who apparently wished more than anything his son would eat/breath/sleep baseball like he did. The kid didn't like sports at all. Made for a very bad situation.
I'm already expecting my son is not going to be interested in the things I am waah. Totally different personality is emerging.
I like to think these are all snapshots of a web altar you keep.

Nice poop scooping into the blast from the past, Black Orifice!
I aspire to be a teacher so I can play a father-type role in this world without having to bring any more tortured souls into the world.
