Re: Why students are not allowed to choose their own career? Why parents force children?

Because parents generally bind their children to fulfil their own childhood incomplete dreams and think let their child accomplished those and thus they even force them to choose those streams and faculty which they wanted to.A simple solution to overcome this is to sit and have a nice talk with the parents and explain about your particular interest and what you want to do in your career.

Re: Why students are not allowed to choose their own career? Why parents force children?

if the parents are doing this for our well-being then why do students who are forced to take the streams their parents force them to do suicide?If parents are doing this for us then why do they not understand that the child may not be mature but this decision may make him or her mature.It will teach the children responsibility.but no the parents just want competition like for example if the neighbor's son is doing engineering then their son must do it to but what if their son wants to do arts or something?

Re: Why students are not allowed to choose their own career? Why parents force children?

Dear pal,
it is all because of their affection and fear. They are worried about the child future and in no case what them to fail. But at the same time they provide them their opinion. They do not decide it with in few days they spend lot of time in deciding it. Few say that the parents insist their ambition on to their child but it is not like that. They want their children to be success and well known person to the society. They are the only wealth of them .
So do not neglect your parents here to their opinion. If it is wrong try to convince them. You need to convince them about the course you are wishing to do and promise them that you will do your best in it. As few blame their parents if they fail stating that they should have not allowed them to choose the field.

Hello Dear,

I want to let you clarify one thing that your parent's
always think about your future the don't prefer your Interest because they
want you to be a successful person more that they are because they don't
want you to make any mistake that lead you to failure so if you are going to
choose any subject that have no scope then definitely they not allow you but
if you think you are right then go talk to them and tell them that what you
are choosing is right
they willl Definitely
Understand you.


With Regards

Re: Why students are not allowed to choose their own career? Why parents force children?

Parents know more as they have seen the world. They know more as they have seen life more whereas children know more about the latest trend. Parents should allow their child to follow his or her dream but if they know that the career which they are choosing won't be a bright future then they should not allow it. They can choose a substitute for it. For example, painting and all other related won't give you a very high payoffs. If you want to waste your life as a drawing or craft teacher then the matter is different. In the future when you see your friend earning lots and you in penny, you will feel bad. So parents should not leave the entire decision on children.

Parents should give guidance to their children when they need. So children should allow to choose their career with their parents proper guidance.

Re: Why students are not allowed to choose their own career? Why parents force children?

dear friend,
Children's are not allowed to choose their career because , they are not enough matured to think about their future career prospect..

Parents are much more matured than their children's , because they have already passed the age , They gather much more experience from their entire life..

So, they have the ability to judge someone, they know this world better than their children..

That's why they always take the decision about their children's career.
Sometimes they have some dreams , which they can not able to complete , for that reason they want to complete that dream through their children's success..

But if you want to go for some other course then try to convince your parents , and try to show them the future career prospect of that course.

I am sure they will listen to you.

All the best.

Re: Why students are not allowed to choose their own career? Why parents force children?

Dear
In many families, parents force their children to choose their career....
This is because they want their children to become what they could not become...
But in my view, children should be allowed to choose their own career... This is totally based on the interest of the children.... They must not be forced by their parents..
Thankyou

Re: Why students are not allowed to choose their own career? Why parents force children?

parent force because you are unsure.

if you are sure that what you want to do than please explain them why you want to do this/that and if still they force than it is some time really become difficult to cope with that.

but your firm belief in that course,your interest and hard work in that particular course will win them at last.

Friend , its nothing like that

you can do whatever you want in life, but you should also try and give your best to fulfil the minimum desires of your parents.after all they are more matured than you and they can only tel which is the best for you . if you have passion for somethin and wanna pursue your carrier on your passion , then sit and discuss with your parents and am sure they wil agree to it
give a try . love your parents and respect them becaus watever you are today you are becaus of them .

Re: Why students are not allowed to choose their own career? Why parents force children?

Not all parents force their dreams on their kids. Yeah some of them do.

I think those who force their ambitions on their child is not good. They think that they know the best what their child can do but it is wrong. The child knows his potential and so if he/she is aware of the different career option then they can chose the best career option for themselves

Parents think that only engg and medical are the best branches and all others are useless. Actually its not right to say that. These days lots of them are non engg and non doctors are more successful then engg and doctors..

So it depends on ones aptitude and interest.

You can convince your parents somehow and i am sure parents cant go against their childs ambition if the child stresses more on it

Re: Why students are not allowed to choose their own career? Why parents force children?

well i do not think that it is valid for all parents as i have choosed my career my self.

but in INDIA parents do choose what their child should do and i do not think that it is

right because it is student who has to study not parents .so parents should left

everything at their child .each students do good if they will work or study in their area of

field or interest .

But sometimes it aslo good that parents should control life of those students who just

lost their path .so at that moment it is necessary that parents should come forward and

choose a best career for their children.

not all parents force their children to choose careers according to their choice. I can cite my example in this. I have completed my 12th in science stream but after some time lost all my interest in science , after that I switched my are from science towards humanities and completed my BA in English, after that I wanted to do MBA as most of my friends were doing that only. At this stage too my parents stood by me and supported but after few months I discovered that pvt jobs are not my cup of tea at all and then completed my MA in English literature and now i am pursuing BEd form a govt college and ready to be a teacher. Thus, throughout my academic life my parents were always by my side and now i am happy with the way my career is leading.

Re: Why students are not allowed to choose their own career? Why parents force children?

parents r influenced by the social environment for their children. Therefore they r in the position to select way to their children which is most favourable in the current environment.
Children r suposed to select when they r able for that.

Re: Why students are not allowed to choose their own career? Why parents force children?

this is not true for all time. the duty of parents is to guide their children not to force them.


in some cases it seem that the children is going in wrong way without knowing proper information. then parents just try to make him/her understand that he/she is going in wrong way. it may come at the time of career choosing also. then if parents are sure that the way is wrong whatever their children choosing then they force their child. but it's true for a few percentage.



now a days most of the parents give freedom to their children to choose their career. even if they think that their children is choosing not a good career option then also they don't force. they try to make their children with proper information but at last they give freedom to decide the last decision.



it's a question of debate. some parents want that their children will go in the way that will be chosen by their parents and some parents think children should give freedom to choose their career option according to their interest. it's a question of thinking.

I am not agree with you. Now days parent don't force on their children. Now every child has the freedom to chosse their carrier.

I also choose my carrier with my own interest and my parents never forces me to chosse my carrier with their interest.
I know there are still few parents who don't allow their children to make decision on their own. But thats not mean that they are your enmy.They do this because of your benift only.

So if your parents forces you to chosse carrier what they say then tell them that you are not interested in this and you will not prform well in that area.

IT is becuase they think that children are not qualified enough to choose their career. By doing this , they are destroying the childrens ability of taking risk, sometime in time , they will have to take risk, which i think parent dont understand.

For many of us, finding a career that we deem fun and long-term is in itself a long journey. But having a successful career in life is not just for the rich and famous, it's also for the average person, like you!

We as humans are prone to look at successful individuals like Oprah or Bill Gates and assume that somehow they became wealthy and innovative overnight, but it truly took many years, time, effort, and perseverance.

There are three important points to address when asking the question, what career is right for me?


3.Latest How to choose a career ::
Changing Careers (New!) - No matter what you do for a living, job hunting can indeed be a daunting task. Tough competition, a lack of jobs, a worsening economy, and a "supply and demand" dictated decrease in overall salaries frequently forces job seekers to explore totally different careers outside their normal line of work in the hopes that at least a different career will offer better opportunities...

Where Can I Find Jobs - Lets face it – job hunting is never easy, no matter what state the economy is in. On a stress level of 1 – 10 its equal to experiencing the death of a loved one or going through a bad divorce, usually ranked at 8 or 9. Compounding our own personal fears, many job hunters also deal with their partners panic and uncertainty, and "Just take anything! We need to eat and the mortgage is due!" becomes a daily chant. Rest assured there are jobs out there. And the best ones – no matter what industry, what level, or what area – are usually never advertised. Anywhere...

Banking Career - A banking career offers a wide range of career possibilities. Before considering a career in banking, get rid of the idea that all it is, is standing behind a glass issuing and accepting money. Banking is much more than being a teller and offers many rewards. For persons who are truly committed a banking career is fulfilling...

Accounting Career - Accounting. For some, the very word conjures up images of green eyeshades and stacks of multi-columned ledgers filled with tedious and never-ending numbers. Number-crunchers. Bean-counters; stereotypical terms that miss so much of what the accounting profession has to offer. In reality, a career in accounting can be very rewarding and far more exciting than that portrayed by Scrooges Bob Cratchit. Todays accountants work in nearly every field imaginable and the future holds a significant demand for more...

Choosing a Medical Career - To choose a career in medicine is one of the most honorable choices you can make in your lifetime. Questions arise as to what might motivate you to make such a decision. Maybe you have been personally affected by the tragic illness of a loved one. Or maybe it is just part of your personality to want to fix things. You may have a deep concern for the well-being of others. You might be attracted to the higher incomes that these types of careers have to offer. If you are contemplating a medical career, you should seriously consider...

Choosing a career in teaching - While many people are turned off by the perception that teaching is a low paid profession, it is a noble profession that provides a great lifestyle and many significant benefits to its professionals.

How to find your dream career - For many people figuring out what their purpose in life is and how to find their dream career, sometimes takes a lifetime.

Choosing a career thats right for you - When you decide to start a new career, it can seem like such a harrowing and painful experience, and you might rather undergo a root canal than go through several strenuous months (or years) of job searches and interviews, while still not finding the job that fits you. Choosing your career may seem downright terrifying. Depending on your personal situation, you might already harbor many years of experience at a single job, and leaving it behind might seem like occupational suicide. On the other hand, you might be a fresh new college graduate, wet behind the ears, and stepping out into a world that seems ready to swallow you up before the ink on your diploma is completely dry.

Re: Why students are not allowed to choose their own career? Why parents force children?

Here i am providing you what is being happening in reality.

The parents who live in villages and who are not literates, they will think that their son/daughter should not be like them.

So, they will take good care of their children aspects. They concerns with several known persons and knows the career which one is good for their children and they lets children to study the same. In most cases, these parents will give less importance to their children options.

Even the children too, they are not in a position to decide which one is good for them and which one is not. So they will simply follow whatever their parents suggests.

But in contrast, Most of the parents who are literates and who reside in cities, they will give the option to the children itself to choose their own career after come to the confirmation that children has matured mentally.

As because of the interest, the students can perform well in the chosen area

what if a child chooses his profession on his parents guide and then the child remains jobless for 6 months like i am an electrical engineer i was forced by my parents to do this and do nothing else they told me if i would not do this then i would be wasted in life but after 4 years of college i now realize how wrong my parents were and they never came to know about the situation which i was in.

Re: Why students are not allowed to choose their own career? Why parents force children?

There are two aspects how you can get out of the loop,
1) Try convincing them by putting proper explanation.
discuss with your friends how can you convince your parents.
Its very easy if you give right explanation.
90% times this is the case that we don't put proper explanation

2) Parents are how many years older then you (approx 25 years)
so they have very good amount of experience. right, so they will
never think bad about you, its just that they are much cautious about everything
Try convincing once again.

Thirdly you have no other options.

Re: Why students are not allowed to choose their own career? Why parents force children?

actually that is not true. students are also allowed to choose their career, but students are not completely mature. so it is not possible to take proper decision for the student. so parents are their to help them.

parents are always want to see their child in a good position of life. they are more experienced in the world than their child. so parents are just want to help the student. not that they not allowed to the student to decide the career option.

Re: Why students are not allowed to choose their own career? Why parents force children?

Parents do not force to do what they want but they force to do what makes your career better.
In India doing any career doesn't provide you a good career.
Because to grow in any field the requirements good coaching, exposure, opportunities, respect in society is not the same.So doing only few courses benefit you and parents say to do that.

For example many interest to do Animation, but institutes that provide good quality are very less. The jobs you get doesn't give security and good salary also.

Students cannot chose their own career because they do not have much experience compared to parents. parents are quite familier with current scenerio of education level and its importance. They always thinks for the well being of the child, thats why they always feard that their child could not take any wrong reason. Therefore, Parents always force children to study what they want.

i personally feel that parent should first listen to your wish & then act. but still if they dont fulfill our wishes like carrer choosing there might be any serious reason behind it.after all they are not our enemies. what ever they think for us, or decide is thought in favour of your better & bright future.so, i would just suggest you , if you don't like their decision , try to talk to them & figure out the reason behind it.

children are not allowed to choose their own career as they might not be mature enough to take a good decision for them . career decision is not a joke. it requires a good and mature thinking.
it is said that parents are more experienced and knows what is good and what is bad for their child . so i think if parents are forcing their children to go in a particular direction they are doing right..

first of all you should remember that the parents are not forcing you to choose your career but they are forcing you to give you a nice future.They are forcing you to study well which is not wrong because today's world is very much competitive and if you lag behind you can face failure which is major concern of all parents. that is why they force you to do studies and they are forcing you towards a particular field say engineering,etc. because this field has great future and opportunities so that you will be happy in your future. if you want your parents to let you choose your career then you convince that your interest in a particular field is useful and you can do well in your field of interest and you can tell them about the opportunities which this field can bring it to you in future.
best of luck

hi friend,
I am also agree with my friend kalyan333's answer
our parents always think about career because they are observe you since you are born and they know what is suitable to you.
But i am also a student and i know that mostly student choose there career where their friends are go.

but when you are going to select your career you also considered about you parents

the main reason that lies behind this is how much do parents trust their child. They know about your potentials and are aware of your strengths and weaknesses. they are just afraid of the fact what if their child fails and is unable to fulfill all his dreams.They want us to protect from this competitive world that has grown much greedy.
but if u have faith in yourself and are cent percent sure that you can cross all the hurdles than you ned to talk calmly on this with your parents. Make them realize that you are not a child and just little support of your parents will take you to the top stair of success no matter how much difficult is the journey.
hope it helps you dear... and wish you all the best....

Dear friend

Why parents force children?

Parents not force children, but in my opinoin they should help and guide the child in making better decision. So, according to me children must have full freedom of choosing his own carrier but the involvement of parents is very important.

Yes, it is true that, many parents will force their children. But they will don't know that, in future his child can not get a sucess. So, its better if Children should decide their own path But after deciding, you should always consult your parents for a approval.

So, i think some pressure is too important for chirdren for his and her bright future. But too much pressure is not so good for his and her child............

Hello Sushree,

See Sushree, parents have given birth to us....they have many dreams that they want us to fulfill them.....also they are not forcing you to study that they want but they want us to chose the right path that would lead us to a better future....We all know that our parents are very much experienced than us, so if they ask us to do something, there must be something good for us as no parent would like to see their child in agony or unpleasant circumstances..
So, you must cooperate with them and also you can put forward your view in front of them which would help you to understand each other quite better.
Hope you will understand their feelings.....Best of Luck

Every parent wants the best for their children be it education, luxury, clothing, life partner etc. & the same holds true for career also. Parents have some expectation from their wards. Since the birth of a child they start dreaming what career would be best for their children - medical, engineering, management, civil services or any other. And when the child grow up they hope that their would become a reality soon. That's why sumtimes they force their children to take up a particular career & not allow their children to choose a particular career.

However,in the 21st century the parents mindset is also changing. They now realize that the best career for their ward is one in which they are interested & have the potential to excel. So, they don't force their children rather guide them in their career path.

Hi Gayatri.how are you..i think you are you are fine..and parents also once a student..and there are parents who are anxious about their child's future and there also persons who want make their child suceed in the field they failed to achieve..so,those are curious and anxious.Now-a-days,most of the parents are prefering the child's interest.they only desire is to see at the top i.e;at the peak..that's it..so,there is nothing in that desire..but now we are choosing the course to our interest..but,are we sincere in fullfilling your own targets..so..wrong is not with both the parents and the children..because,of family reasons,they (parents in their student life did n't reach their goal mostly economically).koool.."PARENTS ALWAYS DESIRE THEIR CHILD TO BE AT PEAK POSITION IN WHAT EVER FIELD HE/SHE CHOSE..BUT,ONE THING THE FIELD YOU HAVE CHOSEN MUST BE THE INCORRUPTIVE,SINCERE,HELPFUL TO THE SOCIETY..AND PARENTS MUST RECOGNISE THEIR CHILD'S INTEREST AND KEEP THEM ENCOURGING..BECAUSE..IF ALL WOULD HAVE STUDIED ENGINEERING,MEDICINE OR ANY OTHER COURSE...POWERFUL INFLUENTIAL PERSONS LIKE MOTHERTERESA,SACHINTENDULKAR,DIANA(OF U.S. BUT ALL ARE HUMANS).....

Re: Why students are not allowed to choose their own career? Why parents force children?

It is indeed very true that no student must be forced into choosing a career they are not passionate about. But many parents do enforce upon their children what they deem more fit,not taking into consideration the interest of their child.
However none can disagree the fact that parents have seen more days than their children. And what is more is that,their actions towards their child is guided by their utmost interest in their child's benefit. Therefore they do have a right to guide their children and try to make them understand what is best suited for them, though not "enforcing" their decisions on them.
Thus it can be very well concluded that choosing a career should be a mutual decision of both the child and his/her guardian/parent.
