In Psychology, we learned a technique whereby we can actually make a person think he is making the decision himself when actually he is just responding to our stimuli. Well, that's what I intend to use a lot of as a parent LOL...just kidding. Seriously, my kids will have the freedom to choose their majors and their schools (college level). But elementary and high school levels, I choose.

I would offer sage and considered advice, expressed moderately and in careful language. And I would expect to be ignored.
Someone with a perspective of a few decades in the workforce generally has a little experience.

As long as they went to university and had goals, I would not influence them at all.

No ... my parents never influenced me so I was free to take whatever it is I wanted.

i will...
but i will not force them to follow what me considering they dont like the course, i will just tell them the benefit it will bring so that they will have some hint on what they should take... unlike what i did when i choose mine...

I for sure will give them advices but i would like to hear first their own choices, where they excel most, and then ill share my point of view. eventually, i want it them making decision for themselves.

i would encourage them to take 'badooy-avoidance 101' so they won't end up like the YAP regulars.
