Should teenagers decide about their own future or be guided by their parents? Explain.

Many youngsters have to take decisions every day, from what they are going to wear to the kind of studies they are going to choose.  Some decisions are irrelevant, but some other decisions, like those regarding their future, should be taken by themselves.

Firstly,  because when  teenagers take a decision, for example about their studies, what is put at risk is their own future , and not that of their parents or friends –although other people’s opinion can always be valuable, above all that of their parents.

Besides, youngsters should be mature enough to be able to take their own choices because their parents will not be always there to do everything for them.

In conclusion,  it is always better that teenagers take their own decisions, taking into consideration the opinion of their parents and friends that can always be of use.
