Dear Amin ,
My father died 3 years ago and since then my mother has worked hard to support us both. I am about to start my first year at the university . My mother wants me to go to university and to become a teacher , but I think I must start earning a living so that my aging mother can stop working and enjoy life. What should I do?

Dear Amin ,
Amin
