How would you respond if you were the teacher?

My 8yo ds wants to be a dad some day.
May I ask why you felt it necessary to tell the kids that thier dreams of being a pro athelete were very small? It seems to me that in grade 3 all my kids wanted to be a singer/actor or wrestler. Heck Adam is 12 and wants to be a football player. It just seems a bit insensitive to tell an 7/8 year old that thier dreams probably wont come true. Its not like they are college age and filling out career choices, they are in garde 3. JMO.
I would have said the same thing I said to all the other kids (as long as it was positive) to the little girl. That was my dream growing up, being a mum was all I wanted to do. But as I grew up I realise I could be a mum and still have a career.

"I think Noonan is at least eight years too late when she laments that faith now trumps competence in GOP politics. It didn't seem to bother her much when a candidate she supported -- the catastrophically underqualified GWB -- was running and citing Jesus as his favorite political philosopher...It's like the old saying: When you lie down with dogs, you wake up with Hucka-fleas..."--Gator

I'd ask her what she wants do to during the years before she's a mom and after her kids grow up.
Being a mom is not a career.
Yes. We. Did.
Yes.
