With being a social worker, or being in any other profession really, provided you love your job, you won’t mind how much you get paid, (well, provided you have enough to get by on).

I always anted to be a teacher, and after a rotten time at teachers college, I had a nervous breakdown and just couldn’t face being in a classroom. I looked into childcare and nannying, and now I take care of 2 little boys part time. I love my job, I couldn’t imagine doing anything else!

With all my training, I still have an interest in teaching, but I want to eventually open my own business making educational resources for parents and teachers in the classroom. Most of all, I want to be a mother.

The point I’m trying (laboriously) to get to is this: If there’s something you’re really interested in, you might be able to teach it. Teaching is such a rewarding job, and nothing makes you feel as awesome as when you manage to help one of your students achieve something. You don’t have to work with kids, you could end up teaching people of different ages, races, genders, etc, in all sorts of different places in the world. In my mind, it’s the best line of work there is.

I advice you just you keep trying . If it were me I would just tell my parents about it and if Iwish to change my course they would do every thing possible to see I become something great in life. Iwould like to be a Pediatrictian(childen doctor).

Answer #3

I can certainly understand the urge to go for the money, but in the long run, money is just a tool for survival. if you’re content with your career, would that make up for the fact that you live in a smaller home or that you have to shop at Ross instead of Neimans? the question is flawed, but it gives a decent sense of direction. hope I helped.

Answer #4

I know I’ve always had the same problems .. I cant help that much but just look in other alternatives where you dont have to be super smart , like a makeup artist for modeling and television or working in travel , theres heaps of great jobs out there where you only need on the job training or a small training course

good luck sincerely

p.s and with your friends , I’ve always had the same problems and then I dropped harder subjects and I had more time then them good luck again
