What were you encouraged to do growing up?

Hokie posted in another thread that she was encouraged to play the clarinet growing up. That made me wonder what others might have been encouraged (or forced) to participate in growing up.

For me, it was figure skating (until I was 15 baby!!!

) and piano lessons.

I am eternally grateful for my musical skills now but at the time I wasn't impressed. I just wasn't that committed but now I see the value in it and play every chance I get.

Sports wise I was interested in riding (horses), soccer, and hockey. I eventually got into horses and competed up until I was 21 but that was all on my own dime and own time.
