	Today we spoke to Mike Peebles, who allowed his 16-year-old son to quit school in order to pursue a career as a video gamer- specifically, in the game Guitar Hero. Mike told us he still makes sure his son is tutored, but we wondered- would you pull your kid out of school so they could pursue their passion? Absolutely! School is great but raw talent begs to be taken advantage of! If you can make 6 figures or even millions before you can even legally drink, who NEEDS school? You can always go back! Isn't life ABOUT doing what you're passionate for? No! My kid can pursue his passion on his own time- if he's talented at 16, he'll be talented at 18. And it's not just the education- a kid needs to be surrounded by peers. What if your 'talent' uses up its 15 minutes of fame by the time you're 20!
