I'll just say that my grandmother was a master weaver and I was a textile chemist. I got to dye the work my grandmother made, so I'm a little biased to the trades.
My daughter is in pre-health. She's decided that she wants to be a doctor, and her reason is that she has a neurological disease is committed that she's going to find the cure for it. I've never dissuaded her from that, but I always did make sure that she knew that she could have any trade she wanted. However, I am biased.
