दीर्घउत्तर

उत्तर

For

Allowing children to choose their own subjects helps them develop independence. As students grow older, they need to learn to make decisions on their own. By selecting the subjects they wish to study, they practice making important choices and taking responsibility for those choices. When students choose subjects they are passionate about, they are naturally more motivated and engaged in their studies. Choosing their own subjects allows children to explore their interests and discover their strengths. Personal growth and happiness come from pursuing one’s own interests and dreams. By supporting their children’s decisions, parents can help them develop into responsible, motivated, and self-aware individuals ready to pursue their passions and navigate the future successfully. Additionally, the modern world offers a wide variety of career opportunities, many of which were not available or well-known in the past. Finally, making their own decisions about subjects can build children’s confidence.

Against

This argument rests on three main points: the benefit of parental experience, the importance of a balanced perspective, and the need for support and motivation. Parents possess a wealth of experience that can significantly benefit their children. They have faced the challenges of making career decisions and understand the implications of various choices. This experience allows them to provide valuable insights into the opportunities and obstacles associated with different subjects. Parents can offer a balanced perspective that combines passion with practicality. While it is essential for children to pursue subjects they are passionate about, it is equally important to consider the practicality of these choices. Parents can help their children strike a balance between following their interests and making decisions that ensure a stable and prosperous future. This involvement can manifest as encouragement, resources, and emotional support, all of which are critical for a student's success.
