I personally think I would be a dentist or a doctor. My mom says “with the patient and skillful hands like yours you could use them for anything you want like being a dentist or a doctor.”
The assignments for Twelve are chosen for them according to their strengths and weaknesses. The elders are always watching the kids play around and recording things they do well and things they do wrong. Those notes later go to choosing their jobs.
My thoughts on this are both positive and negative. Positive by when you are stuck choosing a job and don’t know what you are capable of doing, other people decide what you should do according to what you are capable of. Negative by being too young to choose or get a job. You also might have many useful skills in an area and you just don’t show them to the community. Later at the ceremony those skills are trashed and never used.
