As for the second subject, I think it was supposed to be on parents and their control over our education, but I like the flower one best. My favorite flowers are tulips, I love them, they are so colorful, in such a pretty shape, it's such a soft flower.
Tulips supremacy here <333

But to be honest, it's mostly because I think the Australian accent is phenomenal and would just love to hear it often lol. They also have Vegemite which has a reputation of tasting so bad and I'm curious about it.

Yeah, I knew that didn't sound right when I wrote it thanks
I don't like the Australian accent, Christmas in the sun just feels so wrong, Vegemite = New world Marmite, Australian TV is the pits.
I like the smell of lavender in a garden.

Is it just a twisted Spanish culture?

My favorite flower is red rose.
To finish, I think that parents should let their children do what they want with their career. For example, I don't like when some parents force their children to do a job while the child doesn't like it and don't want to do it. Like when the child wants to be a plumber while parents said no you have to be a medecin... Parents should be supportive with their children's choices.

Re: Group 1 Discussion 4
Finally, I think I just needed time during this period. After my gap semester in Brighton, I finally found a school licence I like. Sooooo I really think parents shouldn’t interfere with the choice of their children. They should be supportive instead (like my mom <3). Children are going to make mistakes maybe, but thanks to these mistakes they’ll grow up and they’ll discover who they really are and what they really like.

Some of my favorite flowers are cornflowers, their blueish / purplish colors fascinates me. And then there're peonies, but the japanese ones.
I think being a parent if the toughest job there is in life. Society doesn't allow us many chances to be and become whoever we would like to so it's a heartbreaking duty for parents to see their child realize this for themselves or to have to teach them this valuable life lesson. No they shouldn't strive to influence their child's career choices but they must help them see the pros and the cons and to come to terms with them so they can make their own right decisions. The hardest thing to do is to give and make options available to your child because you can't just will it, you must make plans and compromises along the way and have the means to support said choices the best you can. So "open-minded" discussions between parents and children are so important, because I think it's a bit of a team job on that note. Listen first to how far they tried to plan this by themselves, ask them questions about how they see this making them happy or how feasible they think it could be. Educate/Counsel them I would say and share your experience on the business world while honestly telling them when you are not sure or don't know in order to encourage them to seek answers, knowledge, and information (make the whole thing clearer for the both of you). You can disagree but you should do it in a way that makes your child see the reasons behind your stand on the matter while accepting that they are allowed to have their own stand as well. And more often than not, that should be enough to make them think a bit further about the cons they haven't seen yet. Sometimes it may help them realize how "not so much of an easy journey" it will be, sometimes it encourages them to try harder. You may still disagree with them in the end and think it's the stupidest idea in the world but at least do tell them your honest opinion (in as much of a respectful way you can) and remind them that they'll always be loved anyway

Re: Group 1 Discussion 4
We all agree that parents always want the best for their children, on all levels, including education. But for me, that's very tricky and decisive in the child's journey. I mean in general this influence is made at a young age when the child is still trying to discover his or her interests and identity. So with their parents influence it's as if this identity is erased before even being built and the child will be committed to a decision, of which he wasn't even aware, to make his whole career.
Sometimes it's a good thing, the parents' decision turns out to be correct later on and the child gets to do exactly what he wants based on that decision, GOOD FOR HIM. But I guess parents shouldn't have to decide for their children (they can obviously advise and guide them) and children also shouldn't blindly follow what their parents think just because it may have worked for them or because they think it's the right path to take.
Luckily for me my parents have always supported my decisions (I hope they're not that badddd)

However, spending time in a different culture than that which you were raised in can lead to rapid growth

I think there are other cases too where our parents influence our career choices unintentionally, for reasons of financial cost of education for example, or just because of the values they inculcate in us (which is not necessarily a bad thing).

It’s known by its gastronomy but also by its history and as everybody knows the beauty of the different places and monuments that make this country one of the most popular in the world, I am also interested in Turkey which was recommended by many people who did not stop telling me that it is a country to see absolutely !
If you are a food lover then may I suggest Britain and the British culture. Don't propagate food myths created by the Italians.
