I. Nursing
The nursing profession has brought about an overwhelming business enterprise here in the Philippines through nursing education and preparation for its licensure examinations. Alongside this is the promise of a wealthy life by practicing the said profession in foreign lands, where salary and compensation for nursing services are significantly higher than what is offered locally. Due to the monetary benefit that being a nurse has to offer, parents urge their children to enroll in the said course, or something of equivalent (like caregiving or nursing aide). Other teenagers themselves don’t even require their parents’ urges as they too, crave for the high salary, which would be of great help to their families and themselves.
