many parents want what is best for their child. but what if you don't want the dream that they want for you? and they totally dislike your life decisions. will you follow them because they said that you will have a good future even though you will not be happy?i'm gonna tell you a story about a teacher. my sister told me her story. she said that one of her students asked her why is her proffession in her biography a nurse? she then said that it was her parents dream for her. she said that she followed her parents dream and she then followed hers. she really wanted to be a filipino teacher. so after she studied nursing, she earned some money and then she went to study to be a teacher. she is now a filipino teacher and has inspired students to like that subject.

My parents are very good models for me. They teach me interesting thigs. They are very good specialist in their jobs and they wanted that their children to share the same jobs. But we have chosen diffrent jobs and they respected our decision. So we are all happy! Becouse the most important thing is to love your job.. In this way you can get better and better... It is very important to fight for your aim and your goal in life! I think parents should let the children to follow up their dreams, but to help them when they see their children choose a wrong path.
