Parent-Student
Career counselling blossoms most beautifully when professional guidance is coupled with parents as well as students' active participation. As a parent you will always find your dreams, hopes, visions, happiness and strength in the success and joy of your children. Career must be navigated keeping in mind the interests, aptitudes and aspirations of the child in congruence with the parent's.
It becomes vital therefore, to solve frequently asked questions such as:
- "I passionately want to join the defense services but my parents don't want as I am their only child."
- "I aspire to become a civil servant but my parent’s are apprehensive that if I fail I may fall into depression and so on"
The best age to start your child's Career Counselling is 14 years and above. Their age bracket falls under, what is termed as "Adolescent"
Psychologists have done hundreds of years of study of these age groups.
Parents will neither have time nor the energy to go through these studies, as they are busy working, living, parenting and so on.
In a nutshell, a child between 13 to 19 years of age is termed as ADOLESCENT.
The child goes through a lot of physical, mental and biological changes. You as a parent need to understand a teenager's life, expectations, what they should do and what they shouldn't. You much also watch out your actions, concerns, do's and don’ts so that you can effectively handle the challenge of Happy Parenting.
