My parents feel that I need to spend more time improving my marks so I can go to a good university. They make me feel like I am a bad son when I don’t obey them and focus on what they think is best for me. For the past few years, I have been playing for the city basketball team. The coach thinks I have the talent to become a real star. He thinks that I need to arrange to spend even more time working on my basketball skills. I feel guilty when I don’t practise harder because he has spent a lot of time coaching me, and he really believes in me. The problem is that I don’t have time to study more because I play basketball so often, and I don’t have time to work harder at basketball because I have to study. I want to go to a good university, but I also want to play basketball. I’m so confused. Whichever way I look at it, I’ll never be really good at anything unless I quit doing everything else.
