Unless her mother has in fact died, in which case perhaps Weiss's desire to become a huntress was amplified by such an event and her father simply it happen, perhaps during a period of grieving where he was vulnerable to such ideas. Perhaps now he is in fact worried about his daughter and doesn't want Weiss to become a huntress because of the inherent risk that comes with it. Perhaps Weiss wants to prove to her father that she will always come back home (unlike her mother) and THAT is in fact why failure is not viewed as option by Weiss, because she could not afford to prove that her father's doubts were ground in reality. Not only for herself (since failure means death) but for her father as well who has already lost his wife, Weiss's mother.
