My grandson wants to become a lawyer,i dont think its a good choice but i'd to hear from others what dou think



Answers:
Agree with the positive stuff that everyone else said. It is a wonderful profession, but it is a log of hard work. Unless he has the calling to become a lawyer, he should not waste his time and money. Law school is the hardest job he will ever do and he will need your kind words and loving support to help him through it. Look at www.abanet.org that is the American Bar Assoc website, it has a section for those thinking about becoming lawyers. Best of luck to him.


First, I think you should not try to influence him one way or the other. Second, I would think you would be proud of him to have aspirations to become a professional. Third, being a lawyer is hard work and very rewarding for the talented. The vast majority of lawyers are hard working, honest people. It is an honorable profession.
I personally think it's a good idea. It's a respectable profession. He'll make lots of money. He can also help a lot of people. When I was younger I wanted to be a lawyer but I made bad choices in life because I had no direction and I don't desire to go back to school now unfortunately.
I think if that is what your grandson wants to be, let it be...if you push him in other directions, he might not do what he wants and be depressed all his life.
I think it would be a great profession. Give him the thumbs up Grandpa and encourage him all the way. Some day having a lawyer in the family might come in handy. Besides, he may change his mind in school and become a doctor or something. Just let him know he has your support, always.
well it may not be But this is his life and he needs to make his own decision and mistakes.All you can do is show him the Pros's and Con's of this and give him the best advice and then let him make his own decision.He could become a Great and Honest lawer who could make Big Bucks someday or he could want to help the needy and Poor.
I think you as his grandparent should be supportive in whatever he wants to be. But I would ask why he wants to me a lawyer. If its for the money he should know that some lawyers make as much as a teacher does or they can make as much as to be a millionaire.
Try talking him into becoming a male prostitute so he will have a more respectful job.
I'm currently in college and after completion of my bachelor's degree i'm applying for law school. Why wouldn't you want your grandson to be a lawyer? I think it's great and admirable that he aspirations and it's not going to be easy but I truly believe that if you believe in yourself & can imagine the goal then you can do it. If he truly wants to be a lawyer, don't try to talk him out of it! Let him go for it. He doesn't need to go to school to do some job he doesn't like for the rest of his life. If law school will make him happy I say go for it!
