Study abroad is exciting, its not only about listening to a Harvard Professor but also about flying solo, exploring new places, experiencing new cultures, making friends from abroad and lot more. Parents readiness is essential in a child's career. I remember, when I was 14, my parents not allowed me to travel for 1 Day Mathematics Olympiad examination, only some 70kms from home. I was studious, I felt broke, mistreated, heck there was non to help me and make my parents understand. Times have changed now. Parents are more open and hence party time for Generation Z.
