I did worry about my son thinking that being a Youtuber would be a valid career path, this has made it immeasurable worse - thanks :(

It is a valid career path! It would be foolish to not have a backup plan though.

A career that is emotionally taxing and financially wild can still be a career. I never said it wouldn't be hard.

Good point, it is a valid choice in the same way wanting to be a footballer is.
