“No man can succeed in a line of endeavor which he does not like.” -Napoleon Hill
My mother started nagging me on a topic I hoped she'd forgotten about/made peace with. She asked me (for the millionth time) what I want to be when I "grow up". I know she was hoping I'd say anything but "music producer". Well, no such luck (for her anyway). After telling her that she knows what I want to be, she tells me (yet again) that she has a dream of me "dressing up" and wearing make up and teaching a bunch of (snot-nosed) little kids their ABC's. So I decided to be straight with her. I told her that no matter what, I'd hate being a teacher and I'd end up killing either myself or the kids. *hopeless sigh*...I don't know what to say to her anymore. How do I tell her to drop it...politely?
