Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums General Discussion what does your child want to be when they grow up?

DS8 wants to run a family hotel, like the wonderful place we go to once a year for skiing.
Or teach physics in high school like his father, but not combine it with math but with chemistry.
Recently he's come up with "what do you call the people who design what products look like? That's what I'd like to do...".
He is excellent at drawing. I confess I've been checking out industrial design schools at night...I'm thinking materials science and then a graduate degree in art school...dear me, let's get him safely through the middle school years first!
