My 16 year old son has expressed some interest in becoming a firefighter. I'm pleased with that and support him all the way. But...he slacks in school and doesn't enjoy reading, doesn't enjoy studying, etc...
I'm trying to tell him that even not so conventional jobs require college success, intelligence, and a drive for studying/learning.
What can I specifically tell him about the rigors of becoming a firefighter?? I know being a fireman is very challenging, honorable, skill demanding, and requires studying and learning.
Thanks,
George
