[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok you definitely need to chill out BUT I do have one piece of advice. I was your daughter 30 years ago - passionate about art, very talented, it progressed through high school and I received many accolades for my work. Due to pressure from my parents (lawyer and doctor) and my school counselors (I went to a very science/math focused hs), I opted to go to college for political science instead of art school because it would give me better "career prospects." What a load of sh*t. I now sit on zoom all day in meetings that no one cares about. I have no time in my life for creating and it has left me resentful. I'm considering going back to school to get an MFA and totally switching careers. It's taken a lot of time to realize that I neglected a true passion and talent and that I deeply, deeply regret it. Not everyone is blessed with a true talent in life, PLEASE nurture your daughter's. [/quote] so your parents told you not to do art but were ok with political science? [/quote]
