Pushing kids to go into STEM fields is a very bad idea, for a number of reasons.
Of course there's a high correlation between interest and ability, and someone uninterested in engineering is unlikely to be good enough

So in that sense pushing into STEM may mislead kids. People who hate it and who suck at math are better off elsewhere, like massage therapy

Yeah, I think there are plenty of jobs outside STEM. The left wants to colonize STEM bc it is high status.

I don't think there are plenty of jobs anywhere, though, but STEM seems like a slightly safer route in general.

Thinking about your kids? How is your son, btw? Did he recover fully?

My kids don't need to worry about this for a while. The injured one is recovering.
