TranquilMind Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Ask your children what they want to be when they grow up, then post their responses word for word, and then put their ages after their response. Let's see what sort of diverse responses we get from the hive children. Today we were on a hospital tour for a homeschool group outing and the director asked the kids what they wanted to be when they grew up. My daughter, 11, said a tattoo artist because her dad is a tattoo artist and she's been saying that since she was 5. My son, 6, randomly said "Army" which was a new one on me (at this stage he'll say something different every time you ask him- later at home he told me he changed his mind and that he wants to be a babysitter and he'll put kids to bed at 8:30 but for a treat he'll them stay up til 9 or 9:30 sometimes). The others were so diverse and cool. One wanted to be a doctor, one a vet, one a photographer, one wanted to own a bowling alley, one wanted to be a Pokemon cartoon artist, one wanted to be a princess, and one very little one said she wanted to be "Grace" (her big sister, which was adorable) lol. So, what do your kids say, and how old are they? Daughter 15: translator, ambassador, something with languages. Son, 12: Scientist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serenade Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 I just asked this of my oldest son (12) today as I embark on creating a 4 year plan.

akmommy Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Dd 14, currently wants to be an interpreter for the deaf and possibly work with deaf children. She has a good friend who is hard of hearing and will eventually go deaf and a cousin who is hard of hearing. In his case no one can tell his parents why he has had sudden significant hearing loss so we have no idea what the future holds for him.
