I want career guidance for my son studying in 10th grade in CBSE pattern. He usually secures 85% overall. He stays confused in which stream to choose further. He usually gets good marks in Maths, Physics and Chemistry. He has an introvert personality. He likes playing xbox and cricket and also pursing Keyboard music classes under Trinity Music school certification program. He follows US youtube channels like Dude perfect, Mr.Beast etc and likes exploring latest tech gadgets or mobile apps or mobile features etc. He sometimes like watching Shark tank India episodes etc, but he can't understand the business discussion part. Please suggest which career stream which will suit him well. Thanks.
Ans: I have read your personal evaluation of your son as a doting parent.
I can only advice based on the observations made by you.

In these situations these are called reactive counselling which will not be accurate simply because I haven't heard from the incumbent.
The child is talented and has a creative mind too with the music school certification too!
The mind is experimental looking for new creative challenges.

The career stream should be based on the candidates acumen and aptitude.
Prima facie you have knocked out business and commerce based on your statement can't understand business ...!

Synopsis:gets good marks in Maths, Physics and Chemistry

So science stream is suggested, however need to meet candidate for professional career counselling.

All the best in the most important decision!

Relationship
my wife cheated me for more than 7 years with one of my friend in our married life of more than 30 years. Now she and her family members are behaving like don. I have provider her all comfort and luxury, how she could do like this and what should be the future course of action.
Ans: Dear Ashok.
First, don’t make major decisions in the middle of emotional chaos. Take time to process, and lean on a few trusted people — friends, relatives, or a counsellor — who can help you think clearly without being swayed by anger alone. Document everything you know about the affair and any incidents of intimidation or harassment from her or her family. This isn’t just for peace of mind — it’s also to protect you legally if things escalate.

From there, decide what matters most for your future — peace and separation, or an attempt to repair (though after seven years of betrayal, reconciliation is extremely rare unless both partners are deeply committed to rebuilding). If you choose separation, speak to a lawyer before making any moves, so you know your rights regarding property, finances, and reputation. Do not let threats or aggressive behaviour pressure you into unfair agreements.

Emotionally, you’ll need to grieve not just the relationship you thought you had, but also the vision of the life you believed you were building together. That grief will come in waves, but every step you take to reclaim control — over your home, your finances, your time — will strengthen you.
