[quote=Anonymous]It depends on your child. DH and I could not function well in something that we were not passionate about. As it happens, our passion is biomedical research and it is a field that does NOT pay well at all, considering the years of graduate school we invested in it! DH also has an MD, but hates practicing it. On the other hand, my dentist SIL is pressuring (forcing) all of her four children to be either doctors, dentists, or veterinarians - even though one is really artistic and not science-inclined at all! She is all about the money and to hell with what her children really want. The best thing to do is to try to raise your children to be adaptive and flexible, because who knows how and in which country the world's economy will gravitate towards? Learning good social skills is paramount in any profession to network efficiently. Maybe Mandarin wouldn't come amiss either :-)[/quote]
