That is strange to me, as a Child I never could say what I wanted to be when I grew up so I find that unusual with a Child, I grew up working for Job Training programs and making $3.35 an hour cause that was the minimum wage back then and I believe all people were being paid that amount not too sure also has a Child I always grew up with sexual thoughts and I know this seems weird/ strange but it happened to me so therapist have told me I could have been sexually abused cause to this day I have issues with engaging with sexual intercourse with a girl in a relationship and I think what happened to me mentally I do know I have a Bipolar disorder and some other mental illnesses but I always pray things can change for me

As a child I always wanted to be a journalist or diplomat. I really don't know why these professions appealed to me. Maybe it's because I grew up in a home where my father groomed me to read the newspaper and listen to broadcast news daily from morning to evening.

I was back and forth. I wanted to be a vet but then I wanted to be on TV. Realizing I couldn't be on TV because of my social anxiety I went to college for Vet Assistant. It was fun but then my aunt lined up a volunteer job for me at a local vet clinic and thats when I decided to not continue in that career. I didn't enjoy it as much as I thought I did. I went to looking into either games or post production in TV or movies that don't involve any social presence. Took game design in college. Struggled with finding a job in that for a few years and now I'm working at a VFX studio and loving it. I am doing my childhood dream that I thought I could never do!

I wanted to be a pop star. I loved singing and dancing when I was little. But britney spears took that away from me. I also wanted to be a contortionist. I would stretch all the time when I was younger to become flexible and do the crazy positions with my body.

I wanted to be a horse trainer. I was obsessed with horses and have been around them since I was 8. I sort of got my wish, I got to personally train one horse right from "he won't let you catch him" to "my neice can ride him unsupervised". And I've helped out with a few other horses, putting miles on a few greenbroke colts, and exercising a few performance horses

Same as today! Working in either a record store, pressing plant, radio station or at least a print shop and playing drums in a band. I can't get a job in a record store or as a DJ because I know too much about records and music. I WAS in a band for 25 years and I DID get to work at two print shops for a total of 13 years. The nearest record pressing plant that I know of is at least 500 miles away!! That's just a bit farther than I'd like to walk!!

Astronaut. But it involves math and involves being tall and skinny, so forget that noise. I didn't want to have to work out everyday or worse, do math all the time, just to circle around the planet doing nothing up there.

I was fascinated by dinosaurs when I was little, so I wanted to be a paleontologist and find dinosaur skeletons.  When my niece was little, she wanted to be a strawberry picker. LOL Guess why.
