When we are younger, our elders often ask us what we want to be when we grow up. Most of us will give answers such as a doctor, or engineer as suggested by our parents. However, as we grow up, our choices don't always match our childhood dreams. Near the end of high school, we are expected to have already planned our future. But it isn't always easy to have a good planned out in our heads while we are still on studies. Then it is a good idea to ask our parents for some advice, but because of the generation , our parents may suggest something that doesn't fit us. At this time there is a need for a heart-to-heart with them.
Parents may persuade us to follow in their footsteps, because they it will be easier for them to give us guidance. But this feeling isn't always mutual ( 共同的). If you have a different dream and you are afraid that they will be unhappy when you tell it to them, you are letting your own go to waste. Try to understand their expectations and explain to them that your interests and strengths are different from theirs. Tell them what it means to you to be able to get the job that you truly want. They will surely realise they've your thoughts, and will your decision at last.
