[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, this is a stupid goal for your children. If someone told me this was their hope for their kid, I would assume they were a deluded, terrible parent, and there is a 99.999% chance I'd be right. If they happened to be in the .001% that proved me wrong, more power to them. But they wouldn't be! Your kids will not be pro soccer players, and even if they were, they would probably be middling and make terrible money while risking some kind of injury and squandering opportunities to do literally anything else with their lives.[/quote] So kids shouldn’t do anything when the odds of a big outcome are low? What a boring life you must have. Don’t bother singing because you’ll never make it as a pop star? Don’t bother studying because you’ll never make it to Harvard? The things you learn working hard at something you love are applicable to so much you’ll do the rest of your life. Life is the journey. [/quote]
