[Answer] Should You Choose a College Major Based on Your Interests or Follow Your Parents’ Advice?

However, if you’re an only child, whether or not you take over the family business may not really depend on your own wishes. In the end, you may still have to prepare yourself to take it over. If you can already foresee that outcome, then starting to prepare earlier might be the better choice.
