My dad finally apologized for (his words) “pissing on my dreams” when I wanted to be a professional musician with a bake shop, and essentially forced me to go into engineering instead

I’m sorry you had to go through that dawg. But I’m glad he apologized, and that you’re happy with where you’ve ended up

I love my current career (not engineering exactly, but sort of lead me into this field) and I still bake as a hobby. I had a bad accident though and can no longer hold my instrument without extreme pain, so it did work out. Even if he was an ass about it (like he’d yell at me for the “stupid” idea, made fun of my dream to others, etc)

Good for your father. Smart man. If either of my idiot hatchlings says show business of any kind I’m dropping them in into a well in Rural New Hampshire in January.
