Personally I think this is a bit unfair to the "dream thieves".
After all, as you said, your father didn't mean you any harm, and has taught you a lot.
I think a better adapted term would be Projectors, because they project their vision of life, their beliefs of how the world works, onto you.
Other than that, your article is right on point.
We humans do have a sad tendency to project our beliefs and understanding of how the world works onto others, and that's valid for every domain out there. Be it religious, scientific, business or just day to day behavior and identity.
But they're not so much taking your dreams from you as they're projecting their ideas and beliefs onto your dreams, seeing what they believe is the only possible solution, and trying to make you conform to that vision.
Just my 2 cents on the concept :)
I respect what you said, but I was not unfair to my father and maybe you did not understand what I meant. I never fought with my father but I was aware that he would not be the right person to direct me as an entrepreneur. I always respected this and he saw a lot of my success before he died but like I said I never fought with him because it is easier for people who are entrepreneurs to understand the head and who is not and that is precisely why I never fought with him my dad. I respected his vision but unfortunately he acted like a dream thief even though he did not want to. If I had followed my father's head I would not be one's I'm just what I mean. Already my mother was always an inspirer and because of her I got to where I am from the point of view that I am trying to say in the post. I love my father for all the best fundamentals of respect, hierarchy, honesty, and generosity. My mother also taught me all these fundamentals of life but she was positive. You understand? I appreciate your comment. Don’t forget to be a upvote for all those who have had time to comment like you, because that is how we will always help each other. This will always be my concept here in this family and I see that people are forgetting to do this. Be generous regardless of your SP. What matters is attitude! Regards
Ok, sorry if I didn't quite understand what you meant. It's much clearer now.
I just thought the "thief" label was a bit strong, as normally it's something intentional and often malicious.
But the way you explained it seems to be more in line with what I was getting at with the "projectors" idea, so it looks like we agree on the meaning ☺

No problem my friend is natural that this happens here in steemit because of the differences in the meaning of words among many different cultures. But the important thing is that, we learn different cultures through dialogue always with respect above all else as you are doing here. Thank you for your kindness and respect and that's always will be the point here. Respect above all. Regards
