That being said, it was drilled into me from day 1 that I would be going to college or the military. There was no other option. If I could go back I’d probably go into a trade instead but such is life. I make great money, have a laughably easy job at a fortune 100 company with great benefits and work life balance. It’s nice and safe and easy and that works for me
The bolded is my point.

When kids/people believe there's no other option it kills their imagination/creativity.

That's why I'm huge on "give it a shot".

I'd never limit my kids imagination/creativity.
