On the other hand, we have children who don’t have the same drive for sales. With those kids with rocks in their pockets we have this great guest blog on the AGU blogosphere, this writer, Evelyn Mervine, on her Georneys site, had her mother submit a guest article on what it was like to grow up nurturing a future geologist. <\/a>
\nBarbara Mervine has a great viewpoint on raising a young geologist, as you can see in this quote.<\/p>\n

Geologists are often born, not made. Shortly after birth, the parents of a born geologist notice something different about their child. Some parents try to interest their young child in other subjects, such as birds or stamp collecting. However, it is best to just give up and accept that your child is different.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Barbara has several words of wisdom, what to expect when raising a future geologist, like this one…<\/p>\n
The parent of the geologist dreads the day that the child becomes a teenager and begins learning to drive. That is because now the child\u2019s habit of looking for rocks while in the car becomes looking for rocks while driving a car. Rock cuts on highways are a danger that all parents of geologists should be aware of. For example, Evelyn was once traveling with a group of geologists from MIT when they stopped the van along the side of a major highway. All the geologists piled out to go look at a rock cut. The police man who gave them tickets for illegal stopping on a highway was not impressed with their excuse that millions of years of history was revealed right there before his eyes. He pointed out that hundreds of cars were right there going by at high speeds. Obviously, the police man did not have a brother or sister who was a born geologist.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Both articles are well worth checking out
