lol...soo true.... DR if not a lawyer or engineeer....
I think in every family there is one person in the medical field..In my family there is allot...But i kinda agree because Dr's are nice and they help ppl...Also i think ppl are taking different views on careers now a days...THey can do so much, and the degree's to get are great, business, computers, art, teaching, government etc...So many choices!

Yh it can't be denied that this is true but not all families are like that... I myself do want to become a Doctor but that was completely my choice... no pressure from my family... my parents actually sometimes ask are you sure this is the right choice for you... make sure you do what you enjoy etc etc... my parents aren't like wow our daughter wants to be doctor that's great... that's the best choice and she should stick to it... they have given me the complete choice as to what I want to do as a career... I have an interest on the art & design side too and they are happy with that too (to be honest my Mum is more happy about the art and design side, which may sound really shocking to some families) The final decision is to be made by me with no pressure from anyone

yeh even in my family my mother wanted me to become a doctor. but i was interested in engineering so i choosed the engineering as a carrier. on reason for this the doctors are given more respect and are more populars than other profesionals. when one goes to doctors they treat them with high regards and in one mind doctors always keep their high position. so a parents always wants there child to become a doctor. but other profession are also good. It depends on in what students interest are. Good Engineers earn a lot. Nowdays Engineering career is not regarded as good as it was regarded earlier. the only reason is opening of a lots of engineering collage in country which are producing engineers in mass. jobs being limited. there is quantity not quality. So there is more strugle in this feild. most of engineering graduates are being placed in IT sectors not in core campanies. But if one get good collage then no doubt engineering is best carrier. other carrier like hotel management, communication, journalism has also become popular in recent years and people are having good salory and luxurious life in these feilds. also there is not much comptitions in these feilds. all i can suggest choose professional carrier according to your judgement of your interest and capabilities.
Non professional courses like arts, B.sc e.t.c are for those who wants to go in public sector but there is lot of comptition ahead.

Couldn't agree more!!!

You have to be a doctor no matter what! And some parents just realy push their kids and when they get so tired of it, they just don't become someone great that they could've in another field.

I think kids should always be given a chance to pick to do what they want to do. Parents shouldn't just order them that that's what they should aim for. SOme people are more interested in other fields which are just as important.

Unfortunately parents don't understand that if your kids don't become doctors, that's not the end of the world and the opportunities.
