The Men We Carry In Our Minds

This article, The Men We Carry In Our Minds, written by Sanders I believe is very true. Most people are influenced by their parents and take jobs similar to the jobs their parents have. Like the article stated, we are influenced by our environment. The jobs we grow up around are the jobs we tend to pursue because we think that other jobs are not in our league. Either these jobs require more education than we can afford or are to menial for our social class. The adult figures we grow up around determine the stereotypes we set for each gender. Growing up as a little kid, I wanted to be just like my mom, so I guess I fall into this category.
