Students! Reasons Why You Must Not Allow Your Parents To Choose Your Choice Of Carrier

Is it really right for parents to choose choice of carrier for their children in school? 

This is the little question that brings about this write up. I think everyone is going to learn from this. Tell your parents NO, if you already have a dream and yet, they want to choose for you.

"There is no doubt that parents are very important to the growth and development of their children. Parents are greatly responsible for how well a child develops both physically and mentally. Educationally, is it right for parent to choose choose of career for their children?

We all know that parents also play a big role in influencing a child’s thought towards choosing a career. Most parents get it wrong when they try forcing a career on their child’s life.

Most children’s lives have been ruined as a result of the career that was imposed on them by their parents.

When it comes to choosing a career, a child should be decisive as to what he or she wants. A child should not accept any career choice just because it came from their parents. Don’t be pressurised into choosing a career that is not of your interest because in the long-run, you may not do well in that career.

Though, parents could a lot be demanding, but in the issue of picking a career, it solely lies in the hands of the child.

Most parents forcefully impose a career on a child just to make sure that their (parents) dreams are fulfilled. While some parents look into the large amount of money that would be coming in, so they want their child to take the career at all cost.

There are many reasons why parents forcefully impose a career on their child, but whatever the reasons maybe, it is not right to force a child into taking a career out of their own personal will.

Below are some of the reasons why you must not allow your parents to make the decision of choosing a career for you.

#1. Gifts and Talents Are Different

Naturally, not everybody is endowed with the same gifts and talents. A parent’s talents may not be the same with the child’s. Now, if parents are making the decision of your career, they will do so out of the understanding of their own talents which in most cases, the talents and gifts of the child would not be considered.

When a different career is been imposed on a child whose skills and talents are not in line with the career, you will find out that the child’s original gift becomes a waste. And believe me; you won’t do well in the career that was imposed on you.

In the real sense, a child’s talents and creativity should be properly guided by the parents.

#2. Parents' Dream Are Fulfilled Instead

 Like I said, there are so many reasons why parents impose a career on their child. No matter what and how the reasons may be, don’t allow it. You know why? You will definitely end up fulfilling your parent’s dreams and not yours.

Let's look at it this way, your parents dreamt of becoming a medical doctor and due to one problem or the other, that dream was not achieved. Now it comes to you, you have a dream of becoming a lawyer. And the passion and interest are there.

Because of the lost achievement of your parents, they are forcefully imposing on you to become a medical doctor of which you unwillingly accept. In this case, you’ve ended up fulfilling another person’s dreams and not yours.

#3. You Might End Up Failing

When you get into a career that isn’t your real intent, you will end up failing in it. Why is it so? It’s so because, the interest and passion is not there. And if the interest of an imposed career is not there in you, the zeal to work will not also be there. And this will totally lead to big failure as a result of allowing your parents to choose a career for you.

The truth is that if you don’t love a career and you probably get into it due to your parent’s imposition, you will burn out in no time, become weary and just look at your original dream dwindles away.

When it comes to choosing a career, the choice is all up to you. You make the decision knowing full well that it is based on your own interest and not on the interest of your parents.

Your parents are there to assist and guide you in the choice you’ve taken and not to compel you into choosing a career that is out of your will."
