I know a mortician. He makes good money.

Yeah that career is decent money. Average national salary is over $60k, obviously it depends on where you live but that's the average. For the state we're in it's closer to 70k average salary. Not too shabby.

She's also considering becoming a coroner/medical examiner or forensic artist- she might really like that since she's big into art as well.

She loves animals but has expressed zero desire to work with them (we've suggested that). She just wants to live with them

A buddy of mine invited me too see an autopsy but there's no way I could do it. I've seen dead bodies and stuff before but actually watching someone open up another human being is a little much for me. Kudos to your daughter for wanting to pursue it. We definitely need people in that profession

She's never seen it but I wouldn't object.

i enjoy your daughter. you might also suggest to her that animals don't talk back either so an animal career might suit her as well.



Unfortunately, most animal related careers still involve dealing with people, namely asshole owners. Been there, done that.

You need to rethink your relationship with her. Her parents are the best example of humans she has had so far......and she doesn't like dealing with humans.
