yes, what you say is of course al true, but this is where online communities come handy. they operate as support groups in the face of mainstream social pressure. i have a mother too and the conversations will go something like this (abridged for the internet):
me: i made this awesome greek yogurt last night! so good and thick and creamy! damn!
mom: wouldn't you like to have a yogurt store like _____?
me: ufffff!
(she doesn't get the farm/art retreat thing or why i wouldn't want to turn a simple pleasure into a commercial venture full of headaches)

as for the kids part, sure thing, but there are people with kids who have done the same regardless. there's some guy who goes by "mr money mustache" (and has a blog) who did that with his wife & kid. i don't like his blog much because where jacob is scientfic/philosophical mustache is more of a moralist/cultist, which annoys me, but it's there to check out: http://www.mrmoneymustache.com

jacob officially "retired" from baing a public figure some years ago but keeps the blog running/republishing posts, and when he did he named mustache as his "successor" of sorts. they are not the same but have very similar ideas. mustache has offspring and is more marketing-oriented than nery jacob.

anyway here is one article about kids. he argues actually the oposite (it's a long article): http://www.mrmoneymustache.com/2013/...-what-you-get/

ha ha ha. i hope you like this.
