Letter: Let The Students Choose Their Own Career

Mahnoor Mustafa

Life becomes enthusiastic when people pursue a career of their own choice. If we cast a glance around us then we found few fortunate people who have managed to choose a field in which they are interested.

Researchers have proved that children with the encouragement of parents in their education can experience better learning and academic performance. Unfortunately, in our society parents turn a blind eye towards the aptitude and wishes of their children.  They consider it their duty to ensure that children walk on the selected path in terms of career. In most cases, Parents fail to provide their children with the required support and guidance for career selection and the result is surely the failure of the children.

Most of the parents force their children to go for pre-medical just because it has scope in terms of jobs in future. I want to convey my message to all such parents that forcing someone to study the opposite of his/her choice can destroy the life and career of that person. So, let your children to go for those fields in which they are interested. In this way, your children can easily acquire a position of success in their chosen field. The simple reason is that people can be more successful in achievement of their dreams when there no shackles of wishes of parents that hold them back.
