My little boy said after school the other day: 'When I grow up I'm going to be a specialist vet for insane animals. What sciences should I study, and how much math's?' He's only four years old. Is that too young to decide?

He is going to change his mind a million times...he is only 4. And I don't think there is a such thing as a vet that specializes in insane animals.

Have him focus on his studies, tell him he really needs to focus on his health and science classes when he gets old enough to take them.

Decisions lie in the maturity of the mind. Some people that comes later in life, some very early in life, and with others it seems not to every show up. So age doesn't have anything to do with it. I've met a 7 year old preacher that had so much knowledge of the kingdom of God I still hadn't gotten over it. God gives different gifts to different people.

Nice to see that children are thinking about the future but i feel he is a little too young at the moment.
Do not discourage this kind of thing but at that age he will probably change his mind a few more times before he decides, i am still trying to make up my mind and i am 10 times his age.
Good luck.

If toddlers, at a youthful age, are presented to determination making, then they are going to be greater effectual able to regulate society as they strengthen older. existence is all approximately making possibilities. concerning a new child in judgements provides them a feeling of worth and it additionally teaches them different effective training - good determination = reward; undesirable determination = issues. I comprehend this is exceptionally simplistic, yet it extremely is fact. for the time of my kin's final pass, I in contact the two one in each and every of my youthful boys, a while 3 and four, in the determination. I enable them to 'help' settle on the place we've been going to pass in accordance with what each and every place provided. Nearness of parks, style of different toddlers their a while in the section, etc... I additionally enable them to help settle on a thank you to beautify their individual areas (interior of reason, of path) - the colour schemes for their rooms, which rooms they wanted for their bedrooms. I supply them possibilities so in the event that they settle on later that they do no longer like it, i will carry them responsible for their possibilities and instruct them the magnitude of counseled determination-making. i'm elevating leaders, no longer followers. I even have 3 youthful toddlers and all 3 are able to coming up powerfuble judgements for their a while. this is a ought to in society!

Nice to have a humourous question. Man, they are few and far between, here. Sometimes I think it's the insane animals that are running this place.

He will probably change his mind a hundred times between now and then! My Godsons (ages 8, 9 & 11) are changing careers every week, and have been since they were about the same age as your son.

I wouldn't worry about it if I were you.

Well at least he is a thoughtful boy - maybe he will turn out to be the next Einstein. Just research the answers to all his questions and be honest with him.

Wishing you all the best.

He's not trying to decide anything BUT his mind is working and that's a great sign. Encourage him to explore what he'd need to do to become a vet psychotherapist. You got a winner on your hands.

Just agree with him. He'll change his mind 5,000 times before he gets to college. Don't discourage him or he could end up doing nothing.
