Do you agree with the result? Whatever it is, we’d love to hear what the quiz said and what your thoughts are!

CEO/Politician - I think DD would be quite good at that role... But just now she wants to be an actress!

CMOTDibbler · 01/09/2015 16:28

CEO/Politician - which tbh is pretty accurate. Arguing the point for a living would really be him

BathshebaDarkstone · 01/09/2015 16:32

Both DC came out as a carer, doctor or teacher. While I can see DD doing something like that and she wants to work for the RSPB, DS hasn't shown much of a caring side to his nature yet! Grin

MrsKCastle · 01/09/2015 16:34

DD1 came out as CEO/Politician. I can kind of see it- she's articulate and a confident speaker, happy standing up in class assemblies etc.

DD2 came out as an artist, which works if it means 'the arts' in general- she's really into music/dancing so I can see her being some kind of musician.

The quiz is a bit of fun, but I much prefer the thought that right now, they can go in any direction they want.

Smcgettigan79 · 01/09/2015 16:36

Both of mine will be CEO's - excellent! I shall stop saving for retirement immediately!

CordeliaScott · 01/09/2015 16:54

DD came out as an artist which isn't too surprising given the results of some of her messy play sessions. Although I think if I asked her she would probably want to be a dog. Hmm...

mrspremise · 01/09/2015 16:55

My youngest used to tell me he wanted to be a farmer but has recently switched to wanting to be an engineer. My eldest fancies computer game design as a career, having wanted to be 'a pelican' Hmm when he was younger.

mrspremise · 01/09/2015 16:56

Theyll both be creative artists according to the quiz. Sounds fair enough...

BeeRayKay · 01/09/2015 17:04

Well it came up as teacher/doctor/carer

She disagrees, she's going to be (and I quote)

A mountain,
(no you can't be a a mountain)
A tiger
(no you can't be a tiger)
A unicorn.
(mummy gives up, pats the head "there there" have a chocolate)

InAndOfMyself · 01/09/2015 18:53

One DC got CEO/Politician and the other Civil Servant; I don't think either one is right! I can see one as a firefighter and the other as a lawyer.

TelephoneIgnoringMachine · 01/09/2015 19:05

DD got carer/doctor/teacher. The empathy part rings true, however I suspect she's too much of a livewire. Circus performer maybe.

SoftBlocks · 01/09/2015 21:08

Carer/doctor. She is very caring and interested in medical things so maybe!

margaritasbythesea · 01/09/2015 21:23

carer/ doctor / teacher- I think she is very likely to be one of these but I think it would be a mistake for her. I think she should continue her minute examination of people's moods and reactions and become an arch manipulator or the head of a muti national corporation.

SmileAndNod · 01/09/2015 21:42

Ds - artist. His dream job would be creating new Lego sets so that's a possibility. However I can see him as a politician / lawyer. Could start an argument in an empty room, skilfully evades questions, can be very persuasive.

Dd - carer/doctor/teacher. I agree. She would make a fantastic doctor / nurse / midwife. V caring and empathetic. At the minute though she wants to be her reception teacher, or a fire fighter.

Theimpossiblegirl · 01/09/2015 21:44

DD1 is going to be a CEO/politician apparently.
DD2 had the same result although her answers were quite different.

It must have been the mobile phone obsession that did it.

Wolfcub · 01/09/2015 21:46

Ds came out as politician/ceo. I suspect this is unlikely as he is not at all diplomatic. He wants to be an archaeologists, I think he will be a plumber

Bambooshoots14 · 01/09/2015 21:52

Carer/ doctor / teacher!

Realitybitesyourbum · 01/09/2015 22:06

Ds came out as artist....is that because he likes to play in the sand and likes Mr tumble, I wonder? He is very artistic when throwing moon sand around the living room when it is meant to be in a tray! It must be true!

GingerTum · 01/09/2015 22:42

DD got Carer/Doctor/Teacher. It's pretty accurate as she says she wants to be a vet!

CasualJersey · 01/09/2015 22:56

DD (5) got Carer Doctor Teacher
I think the description suits her!
????

happygelfling · 01/09/2015 23:34

DD (3.8) got CEO/politician; DS (20mo) got carer/doctor/teacher.
I was surprised how I struggled to find much difference between my children in my answers...!

Imisscheese · 01/09/2015 23:42

DD came out as politician/CEO...not unlikely! DS artist - we'll have to wait and see!

MESSING2 · 02/09/2015 00:20

DD (3.7) got 'civil servant'.
She wants to be a rainbow when she grows up.

ItStillLooksLikeRainDear · 02/09/2015 00:30

Did it twice for both Ds & dd. they both came out as carer/ Dr/ teacher.

clairedunphy · 02/09/2015 06:17

Carer/doctor/teacher for DS. Not sure how likely that is, but he does have a very caring side so that bit is accurate.
