Is it good to follow your dreams without consent of your family & peers OR just follow what your parents say & be a good child??

It may not be good actually to take a decision against the will of your family as you can not undermine the forsightedness and experience of elders. Even the Govt runs on majority. Yea, in the same token..that is not even bad if the concept is so promising to yield you fruits. Convince them hard. Even they love fruits, not the routes...in the long run. Thanx 4 de refferal Tina..

The answer is quite obvious.Follow your dream if you are confident that it is logical but the problem part is there are some dreams which can be achieved only if you lose your practicality. Such a dream makes a mockery out of us in front of others but inside it could act as a catalyst. BOTTOM LINE - FOLLOW YOUR DREAM HOWEVER ABSURD IT MAY SEEM BUT HAVE A DEFINITE TIME FRAME FOR IT,TRY YOUR BEST TO ACHIEVE IT BEFORE THE TIME PERIOD,IF THINGS DON'T TURN UP WITHIN THAT IT IS TIME FOR YOU TO BECOME A MAMA'S BOY.     

Sometimes, our mind says , "we need to just pursue our dreams...forget everyone who disagree with us, its my life...i should live my way."May be we gear success  and may be we fall flat. But in both the cases we lose our family who never supported our dreams for whatever reasons.(may be orthodox)if dreams come true, you need ur family to share that happiness and if you fail you need your family to give you a shoulder to cry on.I have met people who have earned everything in life but don't have their family with them, as such people, preferred dreams over family.In my opinion,life is all about success and failure, happiness and sadness and of course neutral moments, whatever it be gear it with your own people, your parents , your family.you may dream new things but you can never have new parents.if your dreams are clashing with your family, find a mid-way.those who love you will try to move with you.Just believe in them and go on, they will actually help you reach your dreams.You will never get to know that your and their dreams were different but still have become one. thats the power of belief and love. 

The core purpose of any family is helping members to grow emotionaly, socialy,physically, mentally and spiritually.I smell a strong disent , dislike or disrespect to parental views in this question itself. If I were him, I would first define the purpose of my dream, why do I want it, my plan of action to achieve it and seek help form them in the journey. 

Aftreall, why peers or parents would not support if your intentions are right and you follow a path without hurting any one. I think, we are getting disoriented from family values bery fast.

I am certsin, if this route is followed and having a killing passion, entire universe will cospire to make you suceed.

Our very existence is a proof of care our parents took not to throw away us in a dustbin.Good luck.It's my personal view and not necessarily an advice.I am a grand father by the way and have lost bioth the parents 2 months ago.

you should follow what our dreams say coz then only we will be able to work nicely as that work will be done with inner motivation and the parents should also see that everyone has a right to live his/her own life, so they should also give some space to their childen....

It depends on you. Whom do you want to live for . M<ore importantly parents should understand that their children have their own life and they should have right to do what they want . Parents should not create a diplomatic situations for their children. Everyone of us atleast who will have children later in life should understand this.

I prefer family over my dream & currently doing the same.
