Oh, Camila, how familiar this is. In the ninth grade, my daughter also suddenly announced that “Mom, I’m not going to medical school, that’s enough.” But everyone around kept repeating: “prestigious, stability.” It’s good that I listened to myself, now I’m studying at a pedagogical university and thriving. The main thing is that you were not afraid.

Camila did well to listen to her heart. I also remember my own daughter who, at 17, told me "mom, I don't want medicine, I want to work with children". We left her and now she is a teacher and you don't recognize her from her joy. "Prezzie" does not warm the soul.
