The career choices people make usually have a serious impact on their future professions. This is because there is always a slight difference between the theories learned in the classroom and their application in the real world. Therefore, it is important that people be keen while deciding on which fields they would major their studies on in order to be competent in their industries. However, the parents, in most cases, try to get involved in the education of their children and try to encourage them, discourage or, in some cases, force them to study certain courses which are more preferred to them (Wong & Liu, 2010). For example, most parents try to force their children to study science-related courses such as medicine and engineering courses. (1) This may be a great challenge for an individual either in academics or in the professional world. In this paper, we will be discussing the reasons why most parents force their children to undertake science-related courses. Additionally, we will be able to understand the effects that this kind of situation may have on the future life of the student academically or professionally.(2) Comment by Sadnik, Daniel: What do you mean by most parents?

Reasons why parents want their children to study science-related courses.
Parents have a very important role in identifying the talents of their children and nurturing them. Generally, it is the wish of every parent to have academically successful children (Wong & Liu, 2010). This is because it is believed that when a child succeeds in academics, there is a higher chance for them to get higher-paying jobs in the future. Additionally, most parents think that taking a science course like engineering assures someone ready job opportunity. However, taking a science-related course such as nursing, medicine, or even engineering may be a great challenge for the child.(3) A good number of parents base their argument on the fact that they want their children to be competitive in the job market and also be able to enjoy high living standards(4). Some of the students live their lives to regret having taken certain courses instead of others
Comment by Sadnik, Daniel: How is this a great challenge compared to any other field of study? Comment by Sadnik, Daniel: What shapes these mentalities?
Another reason why you would find a parent encouraging or rather pressing their child to take a certain science course is the need for them to follow the parent's steps (Varlik & Apaydin, 2020). For example, if one of the parents is an engineer, he will want the child to be an engineer like him in order to make sure that the leg.Survivalguideapush

This document discusses a study that examined the effect of introducing science career options on student interest in science. The study involved surveying students before and after they learned about careers in food science, veterinary oncology, and forensic science. All three student groups showed an increase in looking forward to science lessons based on the median and mode responses. However, the study was limited by time, small volunteer sample sizes, and potential issues with the Likert scale surveys. Moving forward, the researchers plan to lengthen career presentations, expand the volunteer pool, include more real-world applications, and start an after school science club with activities like field trips and job shadowing.6th Grade Registration Presentation

This document discusses a study that examined the effect of introducing science career options on student interest in science. The study involved surveying students before and after they learned about careers in food science, veterinary oncology, and forensic science. All three student groups showed an increase in looking forward to science lessons based on the median and mode responses. However, the study was limited by time, small volunteer sample sizes, and potential issues with the Likert scale surveys. Moving forward, the researchers plan to lengthen career presentations, expand the volunteer pool, include more real-world applications, and start an after school science club with activities like field trips and job shadowing.6th Grade Registration Presentation
