For many teenagers, especially in Vietnam, choosing a future career is a significant crossroads. On one side lies the dream of pursuing a passion, like art or design. On the other is the pressure to follow a more traditional path recommended by parents. This dilemma is intensified by the cultural value of 'hiếu thảo', or filial piety, creating a difficult choice between personal happiness and family expectations.

Teenagers can research their desired fields and present practical plans. Finding a compromise, such as combining a passion with a practical skill, can often lead to a solution that satisfies everyone. The goal is balance, not declaring a winner.
