For about 5 years now, I've been planning on going into the medical field. I'm definitely smart enough to do so, and despite my young age, I've had several local colleges offer me scholarships for a 6 year med-school program, but the more I learn about such a career, the less I'm interested.( Plus, I don't think I'd have the mental stability to deal with the responsibility of deciding, potentially, whether someone will live or die.)
To put it bluntly, I want to be an accountant, not a doctor.
How do I break this to my mother? With her, I am incapable of just telling her point blank, but she keeps going on and on to her friends about how proud she is that her little girl will probably be a doctor.
