How old are your kids? My worry is that if I do this with my future kids they'll simply tell me what I want to hear since they won't have developed a clear understanding of what they want in life and what's possible to do in life.

16 and 11. I think the 11 year old maybe only started picking it up in the last year or so, but after they picked up a hobby they really liked.

just knowing that you care & realising that they have the agency to choose what it is they want out of life is already a plus.
