How does the lack of support from parents pose a challenge for guidance and counselling?

Guidance and counselling is the process of helping individuals realize their potentials and develop them into skills. It is also a way of helping individuals understand their problems and deal with them effectively. Although there is a rise in the awareness of the need for guidance and counselling in the educational sphere, there is still an air of neglect that hangs when it comes to the implementation of these services. For the implementation of guidance and counselling to be successful, there needs to be support from everyone including the school, teachers, parents, and the learners themselves. However, many parents may not give guidance and counselling enough consideration and importance to it thereby causing an obstruction in the implementation of these services.
