Current Events > Who would you be more proud of in this circumstance? Your son or daughter?[Long]

(+) Yeah! (+)

You have 2 kids, a boy and a girl. The other parent died of consumption when they were very young.

Your daughter was always inquisitive. Straight A student, graduated Harvard Medical School but turned down a cushy internship to instead join a global non-profit medical charity that researches treatments and preventments for fatal dieases globally.

She earns about 17K a year from her non profit and is a single virgin because "she's just too busy for that", she has very few friends, poor personal skills and spends her free time campaigning for equal rights for homosexuals and women as well as animal rights in the Middle East.

When she's not abroad she performs free cataract surgery for the poor.

As a result she seems permentally unhappy in a state of bitterness and disappointed misery due to the rest of the world not caring about suffering as well as her gray cloud student debt.

The son meanwhile is a janitor at Nakumura-Tech, the controversial global multibillion biotech corporation that gratuitously overpays its employees.

He was a mediocre student getting Cs and Ds, never went to college or excelled at sport or anything at all really. He's a bit chubby and a lot lazy.

He takes home 470K a year and spends his free time playing video games, smoking pot and having unprotected sex with his latest girlfriend

He has great people skills, has more friends than you have hot dinners and is always happy and chipper about everything.

As a parent who would you be more proud of?

Edit: Both are independent. You don't house or pay for either of them

The one I wont have to fiscally support until I'm dead.

Damn. So my daughter is an incel who probably has blue hair and sucks at life, despite being smart? But my son is smashing everything in sight, even though hes a borderline moron?

I guess Id be more proud of my son because results do matter. It doesnt mean I wouldnt love them both.

(This is finally a good question and nobody is named Wesley in the post, so Im proud of you, Unfair.)

Not really since I wouldn't qualify it as 'Involuntary " anymore than you are Involuntarily unable to ride Go-Karts

I'm sure you could ride Go-Karts if you wanted too but it's just so low on your priority list that you dont have time or desire for it

Wait for the inevitable team up plot where something seedy goes down at Nakamura Tech and the sibling duo is the only one that can stop it. Then be proud of both.
