[quote=Anonymous]talk with her about the next step, whatever that is for her: PSAT for national merit competitions? Applying to a summer program or getting a summer job? College apps? Help her with the next step. Listen to her--find out what she likes, about her family, what she does for fun. She'll like you more, you'll enjoy it more, and if she asks you for a reference for college or a job you'll have more to say. Don't worry so much about her becoming a doctor--that is nice, but may or may not happen. Show her all the different people who work in the clinic: insurance biller/enrollment coordinator, social worker, pharmacist, grant writer, receptionist, lab tech, nurse practitioner, etc. Sometimes kids don't know all the different jobs that are out there. Seeing a variety of options will help her figure out what's best for her. Show her ALL the different [/quote]
