"This isn't my dream, it's yours" is a trope that is well known to portray the teenage protagonist breaking away from the expectations and hopes of their parents. It finally becomes about what they want for their life, not living for the sake of their parents' wishes. Disney Channel Original movies are not the only ones to portray this concept, but they have certainly used it. It does not necessarily have to be parents, either. It could be any influential adult in the character's life who has tried to override their children's lives heavily. High School Musical is one of the top examples, as Coach Jack Bolton can not understand Troy's interest in musicals. Although Troy still loves basketball, his interest in the world around him is growing, and his father does not support him as quickly as he should.
