So you have to dutifully support them in their stupid dreams about getting hired somewhere they are in no way qualified for

But it's not fair, because all youth are told that the secret to life is just forging ahead with your dream; never give up on your dream;
...without the additional understanding all adults have, but fail to communicate, that this is a feel-good sentiment, not advice on how to live out a life;
...and when their dreams fail to come about, as they have for 99.99% of us, we will be there, with additional feel-good sentiments to ease the pain;
...and a lot of them will be about how important it was that you tried your dream.
