[quote=Anonymous]OP, I am not going to tell you to change what you feel. Why? Because you are a logical person and have already tried to do that. You and your DH found success through a very set route - and you think that is the way to success. But it is not. My school valedictorian has a successful career as a Dr. My very average performer friend is now a multi-millionaire because he has his own hedgefund. So the people who have REALLY done well were actually average performer. The high achievers have done well - but not as well as the average performers. And this is not the only story. For some reason - I have TONS of friends who are multi-millionaires and who were less than average. The high achievers like DH and I - are doing well - but positively middle class by DCUM standards. SO - let him be. It is destiny. He has a ton of advantages by having you as parents. You can teach him to be a good and productive human being. Teach him to be fiscally responsible too - and he can have a great life! No worries, mom![/quote]
