We're talking about Elaina, not her parents. Her parents have their own wishes and opinions. His father clearly didn't want her to travel at all, witch or not witch. And her mother just wanted her to keep out of trouble. But that has nothing to do with Elaina's goals and motivations. Elaina liked a book about a traveling witch and wanted to do the same. For her, that was all. She didn't need to be a witch (though being able to fly certainly makes things easier). She just wanted to be like that character in the book she read.
