      Dd seems fine with the new arrangement. Yesterday evening when dh asked her abt it. She went on to add 1 more plan .. her music lesson.

      Hope the issue with your mom will slowly improve. It will take time. Sometimes a lifetime. It will go up and down along the way.
      Just for sharing, one of my DD's friend joined an orchestra overseas and is now stationed/performing overseas. There is still a pathway in performing or fine arts, etc.

      Art is gaining popularity as an asset class, so there will also be (more) opportunities in the industry over time.

      Our kids generation is luckier than us in that they have less pressure to quickly find work to support the parents or ease the family's financial burden. They also have more options.

            It is the same for other industries which require overseas travelling?

              Crying the whole lunch time because from what happened here - I can see myself when I was small and those suffering which have taken for those years. Hope this will not happen to any kids anymore.

                  Lnw, you may be at a little more fragile state right now? Or you want to share those sufferings when small that still strongly impact you now ?

                    Always have a feeling this dd seems to be leaning more towards Arts side but as of now nothing being at developed/development side due to my 'neglect'.

                        It is OK, forget it.
