[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here so it sounds like most of you are pushing your kids into long hour/ high stress careers? Will you be disappointed if they decide to be artists?[/quote] OP-as others have pointed out, we push our kids because we want them to have a better life than we had ourselves. Careers are uncertain and being UMC does not imply a huge transfer of generational wealth. If my kid wanted to be an artist, I would be somewhat concerned because other than teaching art, most artists struggle to make a living. But I think most of us just want our kids to be happy so if they truly want to be the next Picasso, I would help buy the paint. [/quote]
