Thank goodness for non- Asian parents!

So I am currently snowed in right now and I have had a lot of time to think. I am stressing out about the PCAT (test to get into pharmacy school) which is coming up soon. The career of a pharmacist was of course first introduced to me by my Asian parents. This is nothing against Asian parents as it is clear how hard they work so their children will live a better life than they did. This often involves pushing their children into high paying professions such as medicine, law, dentistry, business, engineering etc. What would happen if every Asian child were actually able to get into these careers? Not only would these professional schools be over crowded but there would also be no Asians left to do any of the other lower paying jobs. For example, how can you perform surgery if someone doesn't build a hospital, clean the floors and equipment, or make your surgical scrubs etc (also without Asians there would be fewer people coming to the hospital to take advantage of the free health care). The only fact that makes me sleep soundly at night knowing this won't be a problem is the fact that non-Asian parents are generally much more lenient as to their child's career path. This is nothing against non-Asian parents either as it shows how much they care about their child's happiness in allowing them to make their own choice. Fortunately for us, these choices are often misguided and they end up working the lower paying jobs to support themselves. Two parenting methods that together keep the world running smoothly. Good job parents!
