At 12, I'm not ready to start pushing her towards a firm career direction just yet. She loves animals, music, and design. I am interested in how she sees the world, but I think it's OK for her to just be a kid for a while longer.

In another 2 years, I will encourage her to take some of the steps you outlined. I just want to see what our kids think is going on in the political world. What they worry about.

Kids her age seem to see right through all of the obfuscation and political posturing. They know when they are being manipulated.
