RE: Are We Really Catching Them Young?

That sucks that adults would discourage and mock him like that. :( Here in the States when I was growing up it was school, school, school so my generation all got deeply into debt to go to college and now there are still no good jobs for us and we have all this debt. So what do our parents say? "Oh well kids should have gone to technical school instead, plumbers and mechanics make good money and it's cheaper." Uh huh, but that isn't what you drilled into us when we were kids, was it? We did what we were told and the "benefits" we were promised weren't there. When I was growing up it was generally looked down upon if you would have done that instead of college - and I came from the poor neighborhood! It was especially pushed on us to go to college as a way to get out of poverty. But in reality it was the opposite.
I hope the kid in the video does what he likes and has a good future because of it.
