Should I say something?

@naoradix: nice.. is she happy? I mean having and raising kids brings a lot of joy to life but sometimes you need a little more to feel fulfilled

@DanGerUs: She's miserable and igores her kids.

@naoradix: that's a dangerous situation for anyone to be in. It's what sometimes sparks affairs.

@VioletRayne: Those people aren't artists. They're artisans. An artist works for themselves, not for a mega conglomerate or franchise.

the point is they went to art school and are supporting themselves with their degree. Not every one feels like you. Maybe his daughter will be an artisan during the week and an artist on the weekends. you never know @naoradix:

@VioletRayne: True, but any artist that has a day job usually loses their ability to create, faster than those who have the freedom to let their minds wander. It's not something you can command. Working for a company diminishes the ability to create, faster.

My daughter is doing some sort of qual in animal husbandry, they encourage the kids to believe it will lead to jobs such as Vet, veterinary nurse or marine biologist. My daughter is putting her heart into this, doing placements at vets and volunteering (the only one on the course) to help out at an open day they held at the weekend. None of the other kids on the course give a fk.

The myth is that you can only be an artist if you have a degree. That's how you can tell if someone is an artist or not.

Lot's of artists have degrees and lots don't, In some states you don't need a law degree to be a lawyer you just need to pass the bar exam and apprentice with a law firm.

@ImAFreeSpirit: This is true, but federal states the you can't qualify to take the bar unless you've successfully completed a law program. That's how they get you.

Sometimes people with engineering degrees can't get a job FYI.

They've been talking for a long time. If I said something at this point I would look like a weirdo. I'm on the other side of the room.
