I'll fully support them and their hobbies. Yelling and not explaining the reasoning.

Encourage them if their inclined in the arts, music, or sports. Try not to make them too self conscious.
Why just three of those? Would you have a problem if they wanted to join the law enforcement, for example?
Nothing. Hopefully I am able to raise my children half as well as my parents raised me. I would get angry at them at times as a kid, but now I fully understand everything they did.

My dad was/is never completely satisfied with my achievements. I remember one semester I got 4 As and 1 A-, he said good you got 4 As but why did you get A-. I was one-down batsman for my school team, we were playing semi-final of a school tournament while chasing a stiff target I played a good knock and kept the innings together got out in the end and we lost by a close margin, he was like what was the point of all those runs if you couldn't make your team win.
When I was younger this constant lack of praise used to worry and annoy me, but now that I'm a full grown man I realized that my dad had huge expectations from me and he wanted his son to be the best in whatever he got himself into and hence when I fell short of the mark it would not be acceptable to him that his son came second best. This attitude developed a drive in me to achieve far greater than my potential and IA I'll keep doing so.
Parents who praise and reward even minor achievements of their kids go onto nourish average joes who are ok with mediocrity.
Seems like a lot of people had very good parents and childhoods here. As for me I do not want to inflict 100% of what my father did to me on my children and about 90% from my mothers side. I do have a 16 year old step child (who has been with me since she was 6) and she is turning out to be just alright.
How old are you? I imagined you very young.![]()
Not a parenting mistake, just something I'd do differently. Put them in Martial Arts training at a very young age.
To give them a choice in choosing who they want to marry
In other words, not forcing them to marry with their cousins.
Don't put them in tae kwan do, I was trained in it from age 8 till 13 and it was honestly a waste of time cause it can't help you in a fight , mma is better.

Ok.... will you be ok with your son/daughter marrying someone from another race and who is not Muslim?
