Parents want junior to get a top education so he can be a great doctor or big-time executive. Of course, that's where the money and status is. What parent dreams of their kid being a gardener or painter? Only in more cases than not, junior starts out in the business world and stalls out in middle management where he uses few or none of his learned credentials. Parents should really ask themselves what they are setting their kids up for.

My own kid rejected our efforts to "pidgeon-hole" his future, and we are starting to see where he is coming from. He just wants to earn enough money to get by, and to do what he loves to do. He said if you can follow your passions, you won't have to 'work' a day of your life.
