[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That's great that he's interested in lots of things, encourage that curiosity. Maybe he'll get more focus over time but maybe not, and that's OK. Go to college undecided and explore! Also, most people (not just kids) have no idea of the vast variety of jobs out there. I always made a point of telling my kids when I learned about something doing a job they might find interesting. It can also be hard to see how a kid's interest might connect to some future path. My son always [b]liked strategy games esp if they involved math[/b], looking at almanacs with all kinds of interesting statistics, and covered his bedroom walls with maps. Now majors in data science with a focus on geospatial data. [/quote] If I'm reading correctly, isn't that what OP is looking for? To get him to be love something specially? In this case, math; and it happened to translate into a career focus.[/quote]
