Most of our parents still believe that only medical courses have status.Even learned people are mis-guided and fall into the trap of MBBS/BDS courses. They feel that their children will ensure a prosperous future if they enter a medical college. They are ready to spend several lakhs to make their children doctors. This belief has led to a prolific increase in the number of self-financed, self-styled professional colleges. Most of the self financing medical colleges provide sub-standard education and produce under-qualified doctors. What the parents fail to realize is that unless their wards have a real aptitude for the MBBS course they can never become successful doctors. Even bright students find it difficult complete the course succesfully.
The society also needs other professionals like teachers, journalists, artists, dancers, actors, singers and chef others. A job of a chef in a five ster hotel earning Rs 3 lakh per month is not of low profile. Some of the doctors have given up their profession to become artists, film actors, playback singers etc. This proves that not only they did not have the aptitude to become doctors but they have also prevented the ones with the real aptitude for the profession. It time for our parents to think more logically and sensibily their wards are not tortured.
