To help parents make aware of their role in their
childs development, we have curated a Dos and
Donts list.

• Dos
• Evaluate your childs aptitude, strengths, and
  weaknesses.
• Help your child in discovering his/her own
  passion.
• Motivate your Child in pursuing his/her passion.
• Inform your Child regarding all aspects of the
  career.
• Help the Child understand the work-life in the
  chosen career by associating with professionals
  in the field.
• Stop your child from falling prey to peer
  pressure and herd mentality.
• Gain your Childs confidence and motivate them to
  discuss their queries with you.
• Seek professional help whenever required.

• Donts
• Do not dictate a childs decision rather guide
  them towards taking an informed decision.
• Do not burden the child with unreal expectations.
• Dont be impatient when dealing with children.
• Career scope changes with time do not try to
  impose the ideas or views that existed during
  your days.
• Do not misguide the child into choosing a career
  of your choice.
• Do not answer a childs query if you are not sure
  about it. Its ok to take time, research or seek
  professional help.

The role of parents in career selection is
crucial for both the parents as well as the
students. Providing your children with an
atmosphere that motivates them to express better
and listening with patience is the key to solving
this issue. The child may be wrong but as a
parent, its your responsibility to reason with
them rather than getting angry.
