I am not saying there is anything wrong with driving a truck. Do not misunderstand me.
If your son had the ability to be a public accountant, but because of drug use in an earlier life, he cut his opportunity short and ended up just becoming a bookkeeper, that would be the same thing. It’s ok to be a bookkeeper, but it is a measure of failure if he didn’t become that public accountant that he could have.
Sometimes it is more than mental abilities that lead us to our adult livelihoods. Maybe he could have been more, but maybe he didn’t have the energy to deny himself and get there. Be very proud of the man he is today and let him know it.
