The relationship between kids and parents is a combination of a lot of emotions that mostly has one of the factors that is highlighted the most which is guidance because they are the first people who are going to be having the thought of ensuring a bright future for their kids and this has been the case for generation after generations as parents have always been playing that significant role in shaping the future life that their kid is going to be living.

Nowadays a lot of people think that they are going to be independent on their own and going to make decisions on their own and the things that are going to be decided by them are going to be based on their own choices and influence only them rather than having anyone else do it for them and the influence of parents happened to be getting a little bit more on the bench Rajasthan being the decision maker as this is something which has been always questioning is the environmental parents and their choice imposed upon us is going to be the best way to go because they happened to have all of the experience and wisdom and also the practical advice most of the times about life.

Many people believe the fact that parents should be making these kinds of decisions about careers and different choices in life for their children because they happen to always see their children secure a happy future as well as also something that is going to be secured. In many cultures, there are a lot of people who believe the fact that a child's career choice is always going to be a family decision and it is mostly seen in Asian households.

However, this imposition of choices by parents-appointed children often is seen as something that is not that great because many times parents look to prioritize their dreams and want their kids to follow what they want to do and want their kids to be doing as well and all of this often leads to a lot of problems in the features well because the interest of that particular child might not match with these Expectations that their parents have with the aspirations that they have seen which often leads to a lot of issues in young people when they feel that they are being pressed into the profession that they are into.

The definitions of success have been very different in Modern Times rather than what it has been in the past was a stable life with a good income the modern day the definition of success has often been seen as related to personal satisfaction and that is only going to be achieved if you are doing something that is of your choice and you have the interest in that particular field and to do that it is going to be required to be the decision of that particular child itself who is going to be choosing the career head and also making the choices making it for them.

Cultural Expectations have been one of the biggest factors why parents have always tried to control the career choices of their kids because they want to be using their children as one of those particular factors which is going to be a very good aspect that can be something that central to The Identity of the family itself and also can be reflected as the achievement by the family which is often something that is seen in a lot of.

Along with the fact that These kinds of activities often put a lot of pressure on the child because they are firstly involved in something that was chosen by someone else and they might not have an interest in that particular field which often leads to them being unable to perform to their atmos potential that they could have been in another field that they had a lot of interest in because of which it is very necessary to make sure that we are involved in a certain field where we feel to be welcome and have that interest within ourself.

It has been seen that children often lose confidence and self-belief when they are not able to perform very nicely in the fields that they are involved in most of the time that happens because they are involved in certain environments in which they did not choose for themselves and that is an issue that has been raised by a lot of people in the recent decades and that has seen a lot of changes because people are now trying to decide for their own and not letting anyone else influence the edition making which has a great factor.

Personal I feel is rather than big dating the career choices for the children parents can often be more empowered and supportive towards what their children are looking forward to achieving achieving themselves to involvedbe in they can guide them in their field in which we possibly and try to mentor them rather than dictate what they want to see them do.
