THE ROLE OF
PARENTS IN THE CAREER DEVELOPMENT OF THE CHILD
ABSTRACT
The purpose
of this research work is to examine the role of parents in the career
development of the child. The research was carried out based on three research
questions formulated by the researcher. The researcher then used questionnaire which was evenly distributed
between five (5) primary schools in Ikpoba Okha Local Government Area of Edo
State to elicit the views of various respondents. The data collected was
tabulated and analyzed appropriately with the use of simple percentage method
of data analysis and at the end it was discovered that parents really do not
have a specific to play in the career development of the child since the role
of parents would vary from time to time depending on the child’s decision to
accept assistance or not. In this regards, all the parents needs to do is to be
the child’s career counselor.

CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
BACKGROUND
TO THE STUDY
According to
the Oxford Advanced Learners dictionary (7th edition) career is the period of
time that you spend in your life working or doing a particular thing while on
the other hand development is the gradual growth of something so that it
becomes more advanced, stronger etc. from the concept of the definition of both
career and development, one would be quick to conclude that career development
is the change, growth or improvement over a period of time in a job that
someone spends most of his or her life working at. In order to achieve a
successful career development process, it is important that the child’s
personality or point of interest comes to congruence, with the chosen career,
that is why Holland (1959) said, career development congruence, the most
extensively studied topic in career development is how well an individual’s
interest match with their career goals. In Holland’s theory, congruence is the
agreement between an individual’s personality (i.e. their level of interest in
either realistic, investigative, social, conventional, enterprising or artistic
realms) and their occupational goals. Holland went further to say that when an
individual’s personality is congruent with their occupational goal, there is
little or nothing that can be done to influence their career choice and if
otherwise, this might lead to lack of dedication in execution of career duty.
Another
factor that can also contribute to the successful career development process in
the child is the parent. Parents are the single most influential factors in the
career development of their children, yet most parents are not adequately
informed about how to help. Parents need to know how to use career information,
how to assist in exploration, how to support development of interests and
abilities and how to challenge the stereotypes facing their children.
STATEMENT OF
THE PROBLEM
It has been
seen that many parents across the strata of the society form the habit of
choosing career for their children and from close observation, it was observed
that the level of performance, dedication and seriousness to work of some of
those people who had their career chosen for them by their parents deteriorates
by the day and as such ends up in a dismal state. If not properly addressed,
the problem of ending in the wrong profession may lead to lack of fulfillment
in life, non-achievement of personal futuristic goals and sometimes
underachievement in career life. It is against this backdrop that the
researcher intends to examine the role of parents in the career development of
the child.
RESEARCH
QUESTIONS
In order to
guide this study, the following research questions will be considered.
How does the
relationship between the parents and the children determine the role of parents
in the career development of the child?
How does the
psychology of the parents determine the role parents play in their child’s
career development?
How does the
educational background of the parents determine the role they play in their
child’s career development?
PURPOSE OF
THE STUDY
The purpose
of this study is to examine in details the role of parents in the career
development of the child, how parents can assist their children in career
development. This study will also help parents to understand how to help the
child create many opportunities for experimentation and how to help the child
to tear down artificial limits or barriers to career development.

career.
