@pookiebee Kids in my family are taught to work their a$$ off even for subjects they deem either uninteresting or difficult af, especially because that teaches kids how to properly make EFFORT, even more so about the countless dull things that come with adulthood. For instance whether you particularly fancy or dislike taxes, it's an unavoidable aspect of adulthood with plenty of consequences. Hence in my family and relatives we always ALWAYS teach kids to do their utmost effort whatever the subject, less because of "you'll need this subject later on" than because capability to make effort whatever the moment and the subject as hand is LE key skill in Life.

Meanwhile you said it yourself : you're unable unless it's out of hobby/"passion". Working is about professionalism, responsability, doing things that annoys you but are necessary for the processes, etc. Hence I greatly doubt you have even remotely the mindset needed to properly work and earn a living.

No hate, just facts

@pookiebee PS: But don't worry, the absence of kids with brain rot from the workmarket is easily compensated by new generation robots and AIs. So much that it's even "promoted" by customers themselves each time they enter in conflict with this or that new younf hired kid very uncomitted to work. I'm not even talking out of nowhere/imagination, because it's already been prompted to my line of work years back, and "today" (=years later) our R&D devs are now releasing "beta-test" versions of our new tools meant to "complete" (replace) the workforces and take more roles as we should develop these in accordance to our customers wishes.

In short, ppl don't have to worry : for each kiddo not willing to compel with the mandatory professionalism, there are already hi-tech tools ready to help the core of (whether old or young) capable workers, as well to detere if not overthrow any unreasonable "demand"(delusion) from greenhorns.
