[quote=Anonymous]As a mother, I am obviously biased, but my daughter (7) is passionate about art, drawing, and design - and nothing else. I/we encourage her interest in books and reading, but art is just her thing - she’s won awards for her talent and obviously we nurture that. I am worried about the future, however. The only successful artists I know either (a) came from a ton of money and could pursue art as a career outright, or (b) work as a graphic designer by day and moonlight doing their art. Since we are not rich, I know she needs to make good grades to get into art school, even. I’m not sure what my question is, I just know that the only path to success anymore is in STEM and it’s obvious that is not my daughter’s bag, and I’m just worried. [/quote]
