Teens today are so afraid of making mistakes they're so afraid of picking the wrong career there's so many things that are like on their mind because of all of what's going on in our world that they're kind of getting paralyzed and if we could just open a communication with the parents and have them be open and honest at times and just acknowledge that they too struggle this fear of failure you have to fail to grow. otherwise you can end up internalizing a lot of maybe oversimplified observations
