"Instead of a lemonade stand, parents should have their children try to make pastries, which is more amenable to an early-career pastry empire" is one of the more stupid propositions in here (and there's competition), but my favorite part is this:

_Unlike textbooks or professors, the creators of these educational materials are willing to engage with random students throughout the world, provide feedback, and even arrange meetups—often for free._

Oh I'm certain they are. That's why educators and staff in the United States get fingerprinted and submit background checks.

Likewise, for adults, your one job is not enough. As someone with dual employers in unrelated industries for all their career the the ignorance and assumptions people profess from the perspectives of their singular employment is striking.
