Unfair future

I have a friend, a best friend that it's just like me, she has born for art, it's inside her, but her mom is looking for a "better and successful" future for her, her mom put her on an actual art school but put her to study idk what ab computers and technology, ok I agree that this will give my friend job opportunities on future, but she's unhappy, truly unhappy, she hates the idea of working w computers and technology, she knows that it is not for her (and I know too), she told she wanted smt that she could be herself and activity on arts, she doesn't want to be full day sit in front of a screen doing things she thinks it's boring on computer (i don't like it too, I agree, but nothing against technology people ok? It's just our opinion) the worst part is that she has vision problem (and her mom basically doesn't care) and she knows that be looking for screen for long time will make it worst. That's so sad, I can imagine me on her place, I would be so angry to my mom, and so unhappy, I hope my friend find a way to change it, or to enjoy the school, I miss her. -PRV★

We all will, and we will never stop being inspired to live in a house with income to share with five people.

Ugh, parents like that are the absolute worst. When a child is passionate about and even SKILLED at something, it should be the job of the parent to encourage that. I can understand the worry about your child not getting a stable future in this society by following their passion, especially for something like art which relies on unstable sources of income, but I personally think that a parent should focus more on creating a safe net to catch their child if they fall rather than trying to set up an entire future that will inevitably fail since the child has no interest in it. Also, what kind of picture as a parent does that paint for your child? Do you really want to be at fault for a wasted life? The logic in their decision, while there, is really flawed and shallow. I can only imagine that the same logic was imposed on your friend's mom as a child and, without thinking hard about it, she continued the chain.

Fr, my mom doesn't like a lot the idea of going to a art school but she knows that I'm good at it and I love art, so even if she doesn't like this school she knows is the best for me, but my friend's mom is just putting her into smt that's not for my friend and she will have her talent repressed for the next 3 years (or more)
