One is a party animal with a casual approach to academics, the other, a dedicated student with clear career goals. Now, you're faced with a decision that could change their lives forever. You can only afford to send one of them to study abroad. Who do you choose? 🤔💔

A Parent's Predicament: To Fund or Not to Fund? 🤷♀️💰
Caught in a whirlwind of teenage rebellion, parental love, and financial constraints, this parent is faced with a tough decision. Daughter A, the party-loving high schooler, dreams of studying abroad but has a troubling relationship with alcohol. Daughter B, the studious and sober sibling, also aspires to study overseas. With only enough resources to support one, the parent must decide who gets the golden ticket. Will it be A, with her unchecked habits and unclear academic interests, or B, with her clear career goals and sober lifestyle? Let's see how the world weighs in on this family drama. 🌍🎭
