I would have chosen Firefighter or Mailman instead. I had a teacher in high school who's a retired cop and he always used to tell us the most hilarious stories and one day he made a comment that really stuck with me: if you want people to hate you then become a cop but if you want people to love you then become a firefighter; people love firefighters.
Is the hate that bad? I mean, cops are people and there's good and bad people. For example, four cops just raped a 17 yo girl here in Mexico and I know, first hand, that racism prevails in certain police departments in the US, but I also know from personal experience that not all cops are bad.
Anyway, hope your kids end up choosing careers that both love and feed them.
