Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?
It is better for children to choose jobs that are similar to their parents’ jobs than to choose jobs that are very different from their parents’ job?
The professional knowledge is important for people doing the job. When people take the job different from their parents' (job), they need to work very hard, because when they meet a problem, they do not have a person can ask. I believe that it is better for children to choose jobs that are similar to their parents' job.
Frist, parents can share their experience with children. Parents have worked for a long time, so they know many ways to help the works become better. If the children take the similar jobs with parents, they can save a lot of time for finding the way. Also, for some jobs, like sales, they usually have their own customer name lists. The sales will not share those name list with others. However, parents will share the name list for children, to help them can adapt to this work more quickly. For example, my friend her father is insurance man. After my friend graduated she also become an insurance man. Her father gave her a lot of help on the beginning. It is unlike how the senior person teaches the freshman. Her father has passion and a heart that really want her become better. Her farther also shared the customer name lists for her, those customer are long co-work relationship with her father, so they trust him so much. When the customer needs a new contract, my friend’s father will introduce my friend to his customer. Even my friend she is uninitiated, but the customer believes her farther will tries to give them a best help, so my friend has her new customer from her father. Also, when the customer's children need the help on insurance, my fried will become their insurance man naturally. It cannot happen to the children who do not take the similar job with their parents.
Second, children will know the job content about what their parents dose. Because their parents must talk about their job after off-worked. The children will know a part of this work compare with other children. When they want to do this job, they can base on their knowledge and they could give better service to customers. For example, my uncle, he was born in a traditional Chinese physician family. His parents and his grand-parents are all doing the same job. So when my uncle was young, he lived in the environment that is full of traditional Chinese medical science. So when he becomes a doctor, he is doing excellent on his work. He can give his patient the best service, because is just like a part of his life.
To sum up, if the children to choose jobs that are similar to their parents, they can have the best help when they are in the work. When Saving the time to learn the ropes, they also can give the customer better service. So personally, I think children should take the jobs which is similar to their parents.
