We all had to make choices in life sometime or the other. Should students be given to make their own choices in life or should their parents make the choices for them? What kind of choices have made you happy in life? If you were given a choice which ones would you like to go back and change?

• There are certain crucial points in our lives wherein we have to take decisions based on our own discretion and choice.
• However, if one is not allowed to decide on one’s own, then it may come out to be a turning point in one’s life negatively.
• Such problems usually arise in the lives of teenagers when they are not allowed to opt for their streams of subject and their careers voluntarily.
• It is important for a child to realize interest areas and decide accordingly. Parents’ guidance is necessary in their decision but parents need to check whether it is a guidance or a force.
• I wanted to learn guitar since childhood. My parents were against it as they thought it would take a toll on my studies. Yet, I managed to make my point clear and ended up learning music. I am happy and self-motivated.
• On the other hand, one thing I would like to change is the coming to boarding school. I and my parents thought it would teach me to be self dependent and to be confident. But now I think I am bereft of my parents’ guidance. At this age, I could have lived an altogether a different kind of a life.
