Parental career advice is notably different to that of advice offered by an adviser. This is due to the fact that advice from parents can be more opinionated. From our parents or family, we have a set of values that we learn and maintain (as that is the way that we believe life should be ran). A parent may believe a career would better suit their child in a given area, rather than what the child would like to learn or more than be expected of them. However, this can also be different, as a parent may have the interests of the child at heart, and realise what job would suit there child (in terms of their future and happiness etc).
