[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Proud of any adult making their way with all their abilities. So for most that means being employed, paying own way for rent/mortgage, insurance-health/car/home, medical, food, phone… in other words, acting like the adult their age says they are.

Above adjusted if any reasons cannot do above on own if not parent-created/enabled reasons.[/quote]

This 100%. We don't care what career path our kids take.  We did instill the concept that they need to be working towards independence and choose a lifestyle they can support with their career choice.  Both attended college (one still in college).  So they can be a teacher, Social worker, programer, Doctor, lawyer, whatever but they need to be aware of the income potentials for their chosen career path and live a life they can self support with it.  
The oldest is gainfully employed and fully supporting themselves and did since they graduated.  The youngest is still in college, engineering major, and will be able to do the same (more easily than the first) once they graduate and get first job.
