DD wants to be a doctor who looks inside peoples bodies & sews them up (future surgeon/pathologist perhaps?)
Or a policeman to arrest all those naughty people & put them in jail.
Or a scrubber shock . She actually means a cleaner!

DS, 2.8: a girl. Worrying.

outofbodyexperience Thu 23-Feb-12 23:52:50

Dd1 (12) was toying with vet but nearly passed out during her first surgery observation grin
Ds1 (10) geologist
Dd2 (8) famous author and owner of doggy day care. As well as Paralympic downhill skier. (busy chick)

DS (2.10) wants to be a fireman, an 'aeroplane driver' or drive a pink London taxi.
DD is only a year old, so hasn't put much consideration into her future career yet. I'm guessing that she'll be a food critic (due to her habit of tasting food and launching it across the room if she doesn't like it) or a mountaineer (she's one hell of a climber)

Dolcegusto Fri 24-Feb-12 09:45:20

Dd1 wants to work in a shop
Dd2 wants to be a fairy butterfly

PeskyPiskie Fri 24-Feb-12 09:51:25

DD (10) a Patent Attorney so she can do maths, argue and write stuff all day - it also helps that its very well paid.
DS (5) a stunt man.

DD 14 A SN teacher

DS 8 something to do with maths or science. Has shown interest in being a Lego Designer before.

DD 6 a vet. Although she would prefer to specialise in smaller animals (not keen on cows). Have told her she needs to work hard at science and when we were discussing which secondary school she and DS might go to, she said she needs to go to one that is good at teaching science. So still keen at the moment I think.
