Debate. Yes/No and Why?

All students can take part in this discussion regardless of the form in which you are in.

In 15 years or so, most of you would have a family. Ofcourse you would want the best for your child/children. You have provided for your children as best as you can and you hope that one day your child would become a successful doctor or lawyer or engineeer. The time comes one day when your child is about to enter university. Your child informs you that he/she wishes to focus their studies on art and hope to work in the world of art as a fashion designer or an artist.

Question:
Would you support your child in their decision? Give detailed reasons why you would support or not support your child.

    I would surely support my child in this field.The reason in which I would do so is that it is my child career and not mines.My child is the one to be satisfied and once they are satisfied I would be happy.

    I think that yesterday's Visual Arts class was very interesting because our teacher taught us about twisting different kinds of paper and sticking it on a piece of paper to form a beautiful pattern. I really did enjoy that lesson he taught us.

    I would surely support my child/children in this field. As the saying goes 'you make the child, but you don't make their minds.' If my child wants to go in the world of art I would definately support him/her. Who knows they might even teach me a few new things!

    I would support my chid to persue their dreams of being a fashion designer. It is their dreams not mine. I will support them because I will be happy if my child is happy. If I were to keep them from their dreams it might lead to rebellion and drive him to run away.

    I think that art is one of my best hobby and one of my favourite things I like to do because when I am at home,and I'm bored,I usually love to draw to get rid of my boredom.To me it is very fun and one day I hope to become a great artist or drawer.

    Yes, I would support my child if they wish to pursue an education and career in art. If my child thinks that art would help him in getting a career I would support him. I would not say no, because I do not find art to be not inportant. Infact, art is very important. Art is all around us and most creations started off with art. If my child wishes to go into that field, I would fully support them as they would be a major part in adding to the society.

    i would support my child/children if he/she wants to focus his/her studies on art and hope to work in the world of art as an artist.I would be happy to know my son/daughter would want to be an artist. Who knows he/she could teach me a few things on art. He/She could even paint a picture of me, that would be so wonderful. I would take that picture and put it in my living room so everyone who comes they can see what my son/daughter could do.

    Yes, I would support and encourage my child to do art. I would do so because in art you never stop leaning and you could never tell an artist or designer might be, one of the most wanted jobs in the future and it also brings in a good salary.

  51. Kamal Mohammed 3H- Yes I would support my child because if his dream is to become a fashon designer or an artist I would ensure that he follows his passion. Fashon changes every season and it takes only someone with a wide imagination to see what the future holds for the public and if my child has this imagination i would believe in him so that he would believe in himself.
