LOL</p> <p>That being said, she is not allowed to be a bikini barista. No siree. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jobs-you-want-your-lo-to-avoid#post-250742 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 11:15:27 +0000 blackbird 250742@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Interesting answers, because I have always felt like fire fighters/policemen/military are the ones to be THE most proud of. They're such selfless careers. I'd be extremely proud if a child of mine chose to serve others in this fashion! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jobs-you-want-your-lo-to-avoid#post-250734 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 11:11:59 +0000 Minnie_Girl 250734@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd be happy to see LO make a good life for themselves doing something they're passionate about--a life where they use their brains, work hard, and are proud of their accomplishments.</p> <p>That being said, I very much hope they don't go into anything military, or government! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jobs-you-want-your-lo-to-avoid#post-250713 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 10:57:52 +0000 mrsjazz 250713@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wouldn't want her to do anything that will put her life in danger on a regular basis, such as being a police officer, firefighter, etc...but other than that she I want her to pursue something that will make her happy and pay her well. Of course if that's being a police officer I will just have to deal with it. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jobs-you-want-your-lo-to-avoid#post-250705 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 10:52:59 +0000 Mrs. Pen 250705@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Whatever makes him happy.</p> <p>but a coal miner would totally freak me out..</p> <p>I hope he is smart like his daddy and he can go work for NASA or develop software programs and make lots of money :):) I just want him to be happy and make a decent life for himself and his future family. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jobs-you-want-your-lo-to-avoid#post-250702 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 10:52:38 +0000 sunny 250702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom raised me to aspire to a career that provides financial independence--I didn't need to get married to be able to have a comfortable life and one day I'll be able to retire. I think I want the same for my little girl.</p> <p>ETA: I guess I never really answered the question! But I'd hope that my LO stays away from anything dangerous, morally questionable or super high risk. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jobs-you-want-your-lo-to-avoid#post-250694 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 10:47:10 +0000 blackbird 250694@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>something respectable and decently paying so I don't have to worry about that, and DH thinks it'd be cool if it was an engineer like us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jobs-you-want-your-lo-to-avoid#post-250659 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 10:31:23 +0000 hilsy85 250659@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Exterminator! I would never ever be able to ask about his day...I would also prefer if he avoids dangerous jobs, like police officer, fire fighter, etc. because I wouldn't be able to sleep at night for worrying. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/jobs-you-want-your-lo-to-avoid#post-250650 Tue, 07 Aug 2012 10:27:46 +0000 autumnlove 250650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I asked DH what he wants our LO to be when she grows up. He said she can do whatever she wants but his secret preference would be a career in healthcare or something in a creative field. The only job he wants her to avoid is a career in stripping! Lol. </p>
