For this reason, it is advisable to seek the help of a career counsellor to help you with reaching a conclusion. When a professional is involved, they can undoubtedly explain the parents how the particular career option would be beneficial for their child. And also, how much scope for growth is present in that particular field. This puts the parents’ minds at ease.
