Personally, I prefer to teach my children to have a businessman mentality, it is ok to start as an employee, learn, earn and save so that in time you will be able to have a bsuiness of your own, follow your passion and start a business about it. No one should be a slave of their bosses or your family's business if you don't want to. Find your passion and start a business from there. As the saying goes, you will not work another day in your life if you love what you are doing.
