Above the fray.
This is from a great YT channel called Black Kids White Coats.

you cant force kids to choose career paths...... if they like it they like it, if they dont, they dont.....


Nah fam... This ain't it. I get tired of watching black people get this business degrees and communication degrees and they're working the front desk at a fukking hospital.

My son is 6ft and he's 12 yrs old. He wants to be a basketball player, which I am totally fine with but if he gets a scholarship for this sports shyt, his major will be something STEM related and he will finish the degree.

You already know fam.

I tell you all the time, if I could do it over there is no way I would have done nearly ten years of back and forth in school to be a dentist when I could have gotten an applied science degree in Networking and make nearly 50k out the gate.

My brother did it.
those 10 years though..you make serious bank though doc..i did 6 years of college and was making 40K out of gate..shyt i should have made more in my opinion

I hope you’re at least steering him in that direction and getting him in programs to appreciate it, or you are in the field.

Not just dropping it on him when it gets close to college time.

He's a very good math student and enjoys taking things apart and putting them back together.
