pressure

Did u read the article about the Cop Cuties?
I think if I told my mom I wanted to be a cop, you probably wouldn't hear from me again.
It's not the most typical career option for a nice Jewish girl. Not too typical for a nice Jewish boy either.
Have you ever dismissed a career option because of Jewish parental pressure to choose a 'better' profession?

Not so much as Jewish pressure, but lifestyle choice pressure.

Let's face it, if you want your family to come first (and I'm not talking about being Jewish-I'm talking about any human being who was blessed enough to be running a family) there are certain jobs that you wont go into

There was a time when I thought it would be cool to be a cop, and I took out from the library a book with a practice test in it for cops, and I thought I did pretty good on it.

End of World is right.
