WEALTHBROOK BRAND hereby presents 'PARENT -TEENS FORUM',
Themed: Parental responsibilities - its role in children's career.
On Friday 18th April, 2014 (Good Friday), Live @#24 Kolawole Street Off Liasu Road, Egbe-Ikotun, Alimosho LGA Lagos State Nigeria.
Our intent for the Parent - Teens forum is to be an interactive forum, let hear from the horses mouth - parents why they impose career on their children because you can't stand to correct wrong attitude or influence until you first understand the mind of such individuals. It's ain't a forum we talk down parent but a forum where teens or children hear for themselves why their parent is leading them towards that path and the parent also hears for themselves why the child intend pursuing a career in line or different from theirs.
Yes it's true that parent should be a voice in guiding their children or wards in term of career choice but such should be balanced especially when the child have a conviction of the career he or she chooses to pursue.
We stands to strike a balance, reiterates parent or guidance responsibilities and commitment to their children or ward and the children commitment in return to their parent.
Our intention is not to kill but HEAL.
