A mother's dilemma - should she let her son drop out of medical school to become a DJ?

Lerato's son is 6 years into medical school but now wants to drop out and become a DJ instead. She's invested a lot of time and money into his education and is terrified for his future if he abandons his medical career. But should she support his newfound passion even if she thinks it's a mistake? We discuss if parents should control their kids' lives and when children should be allowed to choose their own path.

5:10 - You can have multiple careers and passions in life

7:45 - Happiness and peace of mind is most important, not prestige or money

9:20 - Becoming a successful DJ takes a lot of talent and hard work

11:30 - He should finish his medical degree as a backup plan in case DJing doesn't work out
