Amen Brother!
If I may, I'd like to add to this. If your children DO find an interest they are good at, that they like, but you DON'T, don't be a dick and push them out of it. My family intentionally kept me out of programming classes as a high schooler because they "didn't want me waising my time" on anything Computer Science related. As if pottery and English Poetry were
so much more important to my academic well being and future success.
