| Re: Problem with elders I justy wanted to say i wanted to be a pilot since i could remeber. But never said anything to my parents until i became 14. kind of a long time. When my mom heard the news she was kinda stuneed. (im 16 now) We come from a cristian family and my mom says to me all the time "you will get married and your wife wont like you being away 4 to 3 days at a time" Sheez talk about worried. And after what happend Sep.11 she just started to bombard me with "you see what happend in NYC?" "you know that maybe you?" what are you going to do if you get killed and you have children at home left alone with only a mother and no father?" I was thinking wow my mom is talking about marriage while i just have my permit. Stll with the upcoming event my mom started to talk about pilots as a dangerous job. Everytime i try ti talk to her about it she just (basically shuts me up) saying "You go up there and get killed" Now i just stoped talking about it at home. I'll wait for a job to pay for my own flight education that sounds better then having my my talk about biegn killed. And with the marriage thing i say "if my wife loves me (future wife) then whe wont stand in the path of what i love and would actually support me. That is my story.

| Re: Problem with elders So...this thread is alive.. Well I was away for a long time and I aint flying as for now. Well it takes time to make our parents understand. In the process i talked to a lot of people from Flight instructors & 747 captains to the security guard at the airport! Parents...especially mothers are very sensitive in this matter. Though it may seem childish talk to them indirectly abt the + s of being a pilot along with - s of other jobs.. etc... But remember Time and tide waits for none.... |
