How Children Education Planning can be very different ?

How Indians should focus on doing things differently for their children ?

I grew up in an India where getting a job mattered the most for survival ,
India has changed and there are many parents having enough Wealth not only for themselves but also for their children.
How does this change things?
Our fetish for Engineering, Medicine, MBA needs to be nipped in the bud & Parents need to open up to new possibilities & new ambitions of Gen Next.
We are in a position to offer our children opportunities to excel in non conventional fields; those that have longer gestation period like sports and the arts.
Sports, Music, Acting, Arts, Writing, Blogging, You tubing, Dancing, Comedy, Entrepreneurship and so on are all new possibilities that never existed like how it does today.
 Sports like Tennis, Golf, Equestrian Sports etc need investment in terms of huge Money, Time & Passion.
Many parents today are wealthy enough to help their children to discover and grow their passion .
This is a much better path than following convention blindly and studying Science or Commerce, CA etc mindlessly and then ending up doing some course abroad and helping some University there to make the moolah .
Any investment in non conventional education will certainly have many posit outcomes including the development of character and personality, the most important ingredients required to be successful in Entrepreneurship and Life .
Unfortunately non conventional career planning needs to start very early in the child's life .
Children while preparing for unconventional careers generally are more focused and purposeful which as explained above leaves a very positive imprint upon their personalities and characters .
As a country emerges out of the shadows of poverty and moves into the developing Economy zone, one should reassess Goals and Purpose .
Looking into the past will rarely yield optimum results .
 One needs to have clarity of thinking and understanding the Power of Wealth is a prerequisite to be able to make the most for Gen Next .
Being Wealthy is the license to experiment and take a detour off the beaten path to help our children realize their potential .
And being wealthy and still pushing our kids to do the stuff that we did in the path is clearly a mockery of the opportunities that are there for the grabs .
Child Education Planning has Changed Big Time & We Need to Plan  based on both the Child's Passion & Potential as well as the Parents' Net Worth .
