"so wht r ur plans for future young man?"
"aunty let me pass my board first."
"wht! u mean 2 say u hv no plans as of now,at ur age we had charted our course well in advance."
that effectively sliced the boy and left him demoralised.
This is not a single case of its kind almost every child entering the last lap of school faces same question and similar treatment from so called uncles n aunties.
I agree that individual shld hv clear perceptions of his goals and objectives but 12 grade is a bit too early to decide for himself all this and more.
there r only few students who manage to determine their future plans and chart thier direction in life while still in school.children should decide subjects of their choice and shld workout their strengths n weaknesses.
on life there is no certainities.ppl often divert frm their dream careers and choose to do sumthing that they hv never thought of...
Childhood is a time to dream,a time to bulid castles in the air.That is the time we chose careers 4 their percived flamboyance and glamour.Sum of us do hv well defined plans early on,sum r in state of constant flux.So 4 adults to judge on the basis of that is probably unfair.
