It is vital to have goals and dreams because it motivates us to do something in life. It makes us persistent and determined. Without the existence of goals or dreams, no one would ever do anything. There would be no purpose in trying or putting time into things. Things wouldn't matter and the future wouldn't matter or be important.

It's important and necessary to support children and students on what they are doing because it motivates them to try harder and to succeed. It gives them the confidence they need to strive and pursue what they really want. Some teachers or parents don't care about their student's/children's success and that is extremely bad and irresponsible of them because it doesn't help them move forward in life. teachers and parents are the main people who can make a difference in a child's/student's life and if they don't have their support, it's devastating for that child/student. They are loosing the opportunity to be someone in the future.
