[quote=Anonymous]Let her be an adult. Not everyone knows at 21 definitively what they want to do. Trying to fore that is a recipe for conflict, or worse, for unhappiness a decade or so down the line. I'm 52 and I still don't know what's next, but my career has gone very well indeed. Many, many of my generation decided they wanted to be attorneys. Perhaps that's because of LA Law, I'm not sure. But of the attorneys I work with now (there are many because of what I do), maybe 40% are happy. The others really wanted to do something else, or they realized it after they got their degrees and started to work. But now they feel stuck, and unhappy. I'd hate for my daughter to force a clear decision on career when it didn't feel right. [/quote]
