And it's interesting, because society has not built in an adequate system to deal with that, and it is the key decision. We have let people float and land and stick to something. Most young people don't get any exposure to the kinds of opportunities that are out there. I think the one thing young people can do is travel as much possible, have as many experiences as they can and associate with many professionals in various fields. As they work they get a sense of what kinds of jobs and opportunities are out there, which are endless.
Most kids have a very, very narrow scope of what they think is available.
When they go to college opportunities grow a little bit, but the endless variety of kinds of work you can do and careers you can have is amazing, and it's important you find something you really enjoy doing. Well, all parents are concerned about the health and safety of their children, that's the primary thing. I think ultimately, as a parent, my advice to teens would be to listen to your parents, hope that they will listen to you, and if they don't, tell them they need to listen to you. Don't be shy about it. At the same time, realize that for the most part, parents only want you to be safe and self-sufficient, and so they have your best interest at heart.
