2009.8.7 Parents help determined thefuture of their children or allow children to make their own choices.
Many parents are likely to enlarge their role as a supervisor and tutor of their children. Some of them believe that their extensive experience and comprehensive understanding of the world enable them to put their children’s future under their control. But such claim sounds ridiculous when its disadvantages are considered. Therefore, I believe that in many cases parents should allow children to make their own choices.
Definitely, no one could deny that adults’ perspective is far more profound than that of children. The thinking of children,smart and special as it may be, pales by comparison with that of a senior who is far more experienced and knowledgeable than the former. Obviously, few children could establish a well-rounded understanding of their work environment and possible suffering before they graduate from university and enter the society. Consequently,when making appropriate judgment requires rich life experiences and deep understanding of corresponding fields, it is reasonable that parents offer constructive and critical advices to their children. For instance, parents could inform their children how to deal with the interpersonal relationship with their team members and how to appreciate others’ achievements.
However, giving comments or advices is unequal to determining the future of their children. Actually, when it comes to making decision for the children, no one could match themselves, even their parents. As we know, our self-awareness generates in very early stage. In other words,when we were still little boys or girls, many of us were already aware of what we were interested in and what kind of talent we were gifted. Moreover, this self-awareness would get enhanced as we grow up and absorb a variety of information. On the other hands, no one could know our weak point more than ourselves. Based on these two reasons, I think it is totally reasonable that when children are old enough, like in their high school, they are already able to make decision for themselves. And parents should leave such right to their children,rather than still grasp it. If we are forced to choose a vocation which we hateor show indifferent attitude about, I bet it is impossible to make any significant progress in that field.
In addition, parents have to concede a fact that due to the amazing development of modern society, their understanding is probably no longer sufficient to make sophisticating decision for their children’s future. In contrary, young people may be more familiar with certain fields. Let’s bring our discussion here to a more present and practical context. Nowadays many young students could be considered as expert in internet while their parents are still sluggish. So if the young generation wants to consider internet as their career, their parents can hardly give any valuable comments, no mention to making decision.
In summary, in many cases, it is necessary that parents have to allow their children to determine their own future.
