Numerous types of research have been made on career choices; however, researches

regarding those of retiring farmers’ children are scarce. Concerns about Philippine

agriculture and Filipino farmers, as well as the influx of school-age children joining the

workforce, warrant research.

This phenomenological study explored the lived experiences of retiring farmers’

children in making career decisions. Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA)

was used to examine the career decision-making experiences of twelve retiring farmers’

children in Cavite. These children were recruited through purposive and snowball

sampling and participated in semi-structured interviews. As per analysis, three

superordinate themes or phases of career decision-making were extracted, namely:

upbringing and relations, evaluation of characteristics and reflection, and decision and

pursuit. Career decision-making, in a nutshell, is an interactive, reflective, and

continuous process.

The experience begins with the treatment and instruction children receive from their

parents and peers; thus, supportive social systems are of vital importance. Eventually,

children actively assess their personal characteristics, values, beliefs, and resources to

identify the most appropriate and desirable career choices. Most retiring farmers’

children prefer specialized professions, law enforcement, and entrepreneurship (farm

ownership or other business enterprise) as careers. Moreover, they think farming both as

thriving and declining occupation in many aspects. Children of farm owners have more

favorable views on farming than those of tenants. Hence, there are remarkable

differences on farming views between children of farm owners and children of farm

tenants. Afterwards, children make career choices and decisions through study and

work-related plans and engagements. It was also found that there are outstanding

differences on career choices and decision making experiences between younger and

older children. These career plans and engagements serve as bridges towards their

ultimate life goals and aspirations.

This study implies the need for Philippine government initiatives to address farming

concerns, alleviate the situation of farmers, and promote agriculture. On another hand,

career intervention programs of schools may prove valuable on facilitating informed

career decision making of children. Lastly, future studies may use various research tools

and involve children of farmers who plant other crops and children’s significant peers to

provide rich and better understanding of career decision making process.
