[quote=Anonymous]Only if they're happy and they ended up there as a result of their own decision making. Both my dad and brother have semi-skilled union jobs in a factory, and it's a really hard life. I'm a middle class white collar professional, and not only is my life easier, but I make more money, and I'm not any smarter than either of them. My dad--who is college educated--made compromises to support a family. My brother simply did not explore any options and "settled" for what was familiar. So, I'd be happy if my kids ended up where my dad and brother did but not the way my dad and brother did--i.e. I want my kids to choose their profession, not default into it.[/quote]
