Evaluate the father's decision in the following scenario. Are there any problems with his thinking?

Marc is a father and a physicist. He has enrolled his children in science camps and extracurricular activities. He is frustrated by his 7-year-old son Ben's performance. Marc says Ben enjoys himself, but does not seem to have a scientific mind. Ben does a poor job coming up with predictions and hypotheses.

Marc decides it would be a better idea to enroll Ben in classes that will prepare him for careers outside the sciences—perhaps the summer program that lets children learn math and business skills while running a lemonade stand.

Answer:

The father has done a great thing for his child because now Ben will not be forced to take classes he can not even understand instead he gets to focus on the activity's that will help him grow in life, and with his father by his side supporting him nothing in the world will be able to take him down.

The father in this situation seems to have done the right thing his child seemed not to "the brain for science" so he enrolled him in something the son might like such as math or business skills. If theres any problems with his thinking it would probably have something to do with the son being 7 years old and he's already trying to kind him a career...
