fiercely.She then started to say how she had been pushing "high­paying" fields on her daughter-doctor，engineer，lawyer，etc.When I asked her if that was what her daughter had interest in，she said no.I asked her what the point was to push her daughter into something that she didn't like，and she responded with，"I just want her to make a good fortune."

　　After hearing her words，I would like to state that money is not everything.A high­paying job means nothing if you are miserable.I used to do a high­paying job，but it was very tiring and I had no time of my own.I didn't like it at all.Though the pay was good，I was not happy.

　　So I'd like to tell parents，please do not force your children into a major or a career just because you think they are going to make a lot of money.They would feel terrible for taking that major or job just to comfort you.The worst part is the feeling of guilty when they decide to change that major to something they actually want or when they quit that job.

　　Being a member of a generation who are willing to give absolutely everything to our kids，we know we just hope our children could live happy lives.Please do not force a career path on our children just because we think it is good for them.Give our children advice，but don't force them.
