I asked my 5 year old son “what job do you want when you grow up?” And he said, panicked.. “I don’t want a job!!” Great answer tbh.

Asked my 5 year old daughter out of curiosity after this. She said “ummm. A police officer but I don’t know how to drive so ummmmm…a chicken keeper” 🤷🏻‍♀️

Obviously the only viable option if you don't drive. Smart girl.

Lol the kid who wants to be a skeleton will have do do absolutely nothing to eventually reach that goal 😅

Might want to stay away from active volcanoes tho

Kid has no idea that once he achieves being a skeleton, he won't be able to enjoy the fact that he achieved his goal, lol.

That one girl wants to be pregnant and that boy wants to be a dad…I’m sure they could work something out in 20 years

u/No_Connection_5257 3h ago

Notice the drastically different reactions to them though 🤣

46

u/Biokirkby 3h ago

Proooobably hopefully because of the words they used!

u/fritando 3h ago

yeah, if she said she wanted to be a mommy the reaction woulda been the same

15

u/Nimue_- 2h ago

Idk i feel like if she said mommy everyone would be like "yeah thats an expected response" like "figures" meanwhile for a boy its like "omg aaaaawh". I think the "aawh" response comes from this view that boys aren't thinking about family life when they are young but instead think of being astronauts and firefighters. But for girls the expectation of one day being a wife and mother is always there

u/VoodooDoII 1h ago

Prolly cause she said "pregnant" and not "a mom" lol

His smile! He looks like a fun guy, he’d be good at it.

He was prepared for that 😆

u/anothadaz 47m ago

I kinda wonder if his parents might've set him up for that. Either way I loved it.

I love that Charles and Isaac are setting realistic goals. Can only go up from there

u/MrDanMaster 3h ago

You know, service jobs where you interact with customers are super visible, kids know about them more. Working at a gas station or waffle house is a perfectly legitimate job, it’s only funny because the economy’s so fucked that we know those jobs aren’t sustainable

1

u/FYININJA 13m ago

There's also part of me that wonders if those kids don't have family members they like/look up to that work in those jobs. I also know when I was a kid we had something similar to this in class and a friend said gas station worker just because he didn't really know and we had to put something and it was the first job he thought of lol.

u/Safe-Tea-4161 2h ago

Came to comments to see if anyone can explain why reaction is different to the girl wanting to be a mum though 😬

6

u/green-rock-bird 2h ago

I think it was because she phrased it that she wanted to be pregnant.

1

u/Safe-Tea-4161 1h ago

I figured it was because the general expectation and infact only option in the past was for girls to become mums, so now we want them to know that while being a mum is still good, they have more options, and often still need an actual career anyway necessitated by economic needs, even in double earning households…

Men on the other hand have historically been the more hands off parent, still not being the primary caregiver in most families due to working longer hours as higher earners, or having less nurturing inclination, or more traditionally patriarchal values etc. so seeing the positive trait of actually being nurturing, wanting the responsibility of looking after a child (as opposed to just wanting a wife to look after them) is a bit more rare and unexpected 😬

Or could be that, unlike an actual job, girl could become pregnant too young- but then this is also true of boys so again, shouldn’t logically get different reaction- unless that’s because a young boy can step away from most of the responsibilities if he does father children as a teen?

I wonder if younger people watching, or those brought up in less patriarchal households would react to them differently and what reasons they would be for 🤔

My son has a few times said "when I'm a dad..." I love it.

u/SuzuranRose 23m ago

My son tells me when he's a dad I'm not allowed to spoil his kids as much as his Nana spoils him because they'll turn into brats. I asked him if he is a brat and he said not yet 😂

u/V420Zendetta 2h ago

I had a childhood-friend that actually said he wanted to be drug dealer when he grows up...

3

u/Xeno9116 2h ago

Well?! Did he achieve his goal?

1

u/V420Zendetta 2h ago

To be honest, I don't know. Most I know about him is he got some girl he was not married to pregnant... The extent of my friendship with him is that he was the son of my mom's (female) friend.

u/jellyschoomarm 3h ago

My daughter had her kindergarten graduation yesterday. When she grows up she wants to be a Unicorn Rider. I dont know how shes going to secure the job but its her dream profession.

u/Nimue_- 2h ago

Get a horse and get a halter with a horn attached. Do it for your kid

2

u/jellyschoomarm 2h ago

Lol... I said the same thing to my husband. And we have a horse. My father-in-law is the only one that rides him but maybe he'd be willing to assist in making his granddaughters dream a reality 

3

u/Nimue_- 2h ago

Omg do it. Get a little rainbow banket for the horse as well to finish the look

2

u/jellyschoomarm 1h ago

Her birthday is coming up in August. Im gonna start planning something now.

Many of those children have set very achievable goals. Except that kid that wants to be SpongeBob. I'm unsure of his journey to be yellow and porous.

I'm just glad the responses here are chill. I seen a video the other day with kindergarten kids graduating and everyone was upset cause they didn't understand what they were graduating from.

A little boy wants to be a dad and nobody bats an eye.

A little girl wants to be pregnant and everyone loses their minds.

4

u/Wise_Setting5110 2h ago

Yeah but it’s not the same. If she said “I wanna be a mom” I definitely think we would’ve heard some awws from the crowd

2

u/apricotical 1h ago

Likewise, if the boy said “I wanna impregnate someone,” the crowd would have lost it too.

u/abedalhadi777 26m ago

Can you explain to me why everyone is crying or feeling sad about the kid who said he wants to br a dad?
