Passing an entrance exam of a university has become the biggest desire of both students and their family. Consequently, in these days, a large number of parents have created too much expectation on their children of entering a university. With some stereotypes borne in mind, they don’t realize that university education is not the only way to have a successful career in the future.
There are many reasons that parents do impose their subjective opinions on their children. One of the most important reasons is the tradition of family. Take an example of a youngest boy in a family in An Vien ward, Trang Bom district. Both his parents and his siblings graduated from university, but with his limited capacity, he decided to take a non-university high school of power supply instead of a university. Right after being informed about his decision, his parents expressed a strong disapproval and not pay any attention to him anymore.
The other reason is the reputation of family. According to a survey of Tuoi Tre newspaper from 150 parents who have a child taking university exam this year in two districts of Long Thanh and Trang Bom, Dong Nai, it results that 132 parents want their children passing the University examination, the rest are satisfied with colleges and secondary levels. These parents think if their child passes the entrance exam to university, it will bring fame to the whole family.
Consequently, most of parents now have a high opinion of “university is the only way to success”. To some extent, they intentionally or accidentally put their children into uncomfortable situations as well as create psychological pressure for them.
