A question for parents? (From Student)

<p>I think you need to have a hard conversation with your mother. The bottom line is that if you have absolutely no interest in CS then she is sentencing you to a life of professional misery if she is insisting that you major in it. Most people who are miserable in their profession do not do very well in the long term. I think a very fair question to your mother is: how does majoring in something you dislike make any sense? Accounting and finance can be applied to many facets of business and certainly you would have many avenues to explore with that degree. </p>

<p>And I would talk to your dad about it as well. This is important and he should weigh in.</p>
