No person can know what is best for another person.
I mean really know; sure you can say we have some responsibility to the youth to nudge them in a good direction.
But my point is you can't really _know_.
I have a problem that you are essentially telling little Jimmy that he's _probably_ not going to be Bill Gates, so why try? Better to go to a good school, get a good job, and be successful.
Only you can't and shouldn't define success for another human being.
For me the only way I can be happy is if I do myself Justice. That means trying to accomplish the things I want to accomplish. Note I said trying. You know it doesn't really actually matter that I do it or not, it matters that I am actively trying - that's called living life. The journey is your life. The goal is just an end. And who wants to be at the end?
