[quote=Anonymous]College English professor here and I agree with the pps. The whole "do what you love" thing is overrated when you're an adult and you're thinking about things like a nice vacation, quality daycare and a mortgage. It's great to do something that you enjoy, that gives meaning to your life,etc but it's also disrespectful of the time you put into training for that job and your intellect when that job pays a pittance. Talk to her about how her values might change when she's older, about other responsibilities, not just pleasing herself with a job that seems fun. I wish my parents had. I could have been equally happy as a nurse or other medical professional, made more money but also derived a lot of personal satisfaction. NOt to mention there are tons of PT schedule options that work when you have kids.[/quote]
