Results Show the Way
Whether your child is waiting for exam scores or just a few years away, results day is the time when parents are ready to start their careers. It's a chance to discuss choices with teens.
Here, Dr. Nihara Krause, a leading teenage clinical psychologist, offers tips.
- Timing: Measures openness to discussing topics before starting a conversation. Focus on what you think they can talk about, for example sports or music they like.
- Obstacles: Young people are often too worried or distracted to participate in conversations about future career options. Try saying, "It sounds like you're worried, can you help?" or "Let's discuss it again when things aren't so hard for you."
- Passion: Focus on their interests rather than practicality. Young people's brains are wired for rewards. Conversation starters include: "What do you like most about doing things?"
- Two-Way Communication: Learn to listen more than you speak and not judge. Try to withhold your opinions and thoughts. Be open to all options and realize that their career ideas may change over time.
- Positivity: By listening to your child and educating yourself about the career choices they are making, you can understand and support them.
