What major should one go into when he doesn't know what he want. When he is only driven by his parent wishes

Well if you're like me and my asian parents... :/ then talk to them. Give them reasons about what you want. That they shouldn't push you too much because it really doesn't help if they force you to go into something you don't want to. And you can always go into general learning first year and then go from there. I'm having the same problem right now. Sin chao.

OK, I had some trouble understanding your question...But if you're trying to decide your future plans (work, marriage, ect) your parents feelings are important but it has to be what you want. You need to enjoy your job, so it has to be something you really want to do. If you enjoy pharmacology, then great. Just think all the way through your decisions.

if he is not leaving for college what's the problem. you will have plenty of time for your parents to change there mind. if they like him ask him over for dinner with everyone. if that doesn't work out do not worry time is on your side. life will bring you many things to come. enjoy today if he likes you he will be there tomorrow. if not it maybe was never meant to be. what you want today is not always what you want tomorrow. there are plenty of fish in the sea.

Sit down with your parents  and tell them you love and respect them.Then show them in writing that you have a concrete plan for your future.For example the program you want to take, where you will live, budget, if you must work,etc. Also try to show you have prepared for emergencies and have alternate plans and options. Your parents will be more receptive to your wishes if you can show them you have given this plan a lot of thought and consideration.

I've been thinking about other things that i can do to fall back on and two majors that stand out to me is liberal studies and women studies. they both have many things that you can do with either degree and for the moment you don't have to use it right away so i think that they can be good. personally I've chosen many different things to fall back on that i want to go to school for like event planning, interior design and different languages to go along with my teaching degree. it's all about options. look around and choose a degree that you will enjoy and that in being a stay-at-home-mom can do to help your children. when you are at home you can work from there doing interior design or event planning by having your own business. you can go to school for teaching as you will be teaching your children in some way shape or form even if they go to school. like i said, think of something you enjoy and then find out from a counselor if you can major in it or something similar. good luck and have fun!

See the other answer.  It really depends on what you want to do next in your life.

None at all. You need something to fall back on. If you're inspiring a career; you need to go to college and then follow the road of your dreams.

More than anything else, I would say you should explore what you like and learn what you have a passion for.  From there decide on how you'll fit that into a career.  I had no idea what to major in when I began in college, but I kept looking.  I was skeptical when they told me that college is a place to explore, but it really is; you just have to be intelligent about it.  Find out what really catches your interest (or heart), and fit your education to that.  After 2.5 years of college, as a former high school slacker, I would say that the most important thing is to enjoy what you’re studying.  You just have to jump into college and learn not to limit yourself.  Learn not to pity yourself when you seem to be studying more than what you think is “reasonable.”  Don’t kill yourself with work in high school; it’s more important to learn what you love to do.

Your parents will provide whatever you ACTUALLY require. So you should turn to full time study.

Political Science....PolySci.  It would be a major to afford avenues into many meaningful professions.  Law, news, politics and many more.

The freedom to choose your own path is important, but remember that your parents have traveled that path before however impossible that seems.  Some choices that you make will forever alter the direction of your life.  Choose wisely.

I'd suggest economics.  If you are not too far along in college, you could probably give up enough electives so the double major wouldn't extend the time it takes to get a degree.

What you major in might be different from what you actually end up doing, so it's ok if you hear different opinions. But from what you describe, I think you are fit for many majors and you just have to pick one to become a domain expert. Some examples:\n\nIf you wan to help the public, History is a good major to understand the evolution of society and events which have led to today's status quo. Understanding history will help you predict and mold the future as changes occur.\n\nIf you want to do (white collar jobs) public service, I think many people also get their law degree. Something you should consider after your bachelor's education.\n\nPsychology will help you understand why and how people think, which could help you get into clinics and social institutions helping mentally-ill people. I think to be a psychologist or someone who studies people, you would have to obtain a master's or doctor's degree. Something to think about... Some psychology grads also get hired by software companies to help build more intuitive and smarter software products.

Family counseling, and some alcohol classes for your father. Research those options.

No its not bad, but if you dont want to be what your parents want you to be you should try talking to them and tell them what you want to be.  If they dont agree do what you want to do and someday they will come around and respect yor feelings.

what are you looking to go into later, do you have any idea?  depending upon that one might be more helpful.

My crystal ball cannot predict what academic majors will have the most career potential, no one else can either. Just do what interests you the most. College is a waste of your time if you do it only to get a career, you're more likely to enter into a field unrelated to your major. Learn to bullshit, no good bullshit that will actually convince someone.
