Re: 7 Jobs Nigerian Parents May Never Ever Understand by bootstrap(m): 1:19am On Sep 12, 2016
Parents you say?... I am not yet a parent, im in my 30s. And i doubt i will be comfortable with my kids opting for some of these professions straight out of high school.

I will encourage them for sure... To pursue passion. But also teach them to be able to combine stuff.
Be a lawyer, yet a musician. Be an artist and a photographer. Studying engineering or medicine and be a blogger (Vlogger). (did i hear smone say jack of all trade?)

My tot.... its usually safer to hv a fall back plan, just incase u decide that photography or whatever is no longer paying the bills. Maybe i am old school at heart, but i will never forgive myself as a parent if i let my kid go to school to study smthing he/she can still excel at without necessarily having a degeee at it... Esp a first degree.

Computer science, then become a programmer, bus admin and be a fashion designer, etc etc.

Blogger shouldn't be in ur list. It is a kind of one-man-modern-electronic-journalism. It will be appreciated by parents.
