Jul 19, 2017 at 12:27 comment added SomeShinyObject The harsh reality of telling a kid how it is. Just today my son learned that even though he started summer break, I however did not. "Well why?" "Because kid, adults don't get those." Harsh reality is that sometimes growing up is...well..bullshit.
Jul 19, 2017 at 10:15 comment added RedSonja My youngest sister knew everything better at 15 years old, and failed all her O-levels except art. She was good at art and wanted to be an artist. The local tech accepted her as an art student and she got a little diploma. Then she discovered she wasn't Picasso after all. So she jobbed at a graphics company. By dint of hard work and intelligence she worked her way up to department leader. One day they decided to downsize, and the boss read all the CVs and the first to be sacked was this woman with no O-levels. She's still cycling through the low-paid boring, hard, repetitive jobs in the area.

"you need to have a long-term plan that includes advancement, because that is what all adults who are not losers want to have in their careers." is this meant to the the 'Dad' perspective, or a general outlook? Because being happy where you are is far more important than advancement!
Jul 15, 2017 at 15:23 comment added WoJ No dad has the slightest bit of regard for his son's "wisdom" on things like that. You need him to think of you as a man, but all that does is make you look, in his eyes, like a little kid. I would add that this changes later in life, but not that much :)
