Seems important to note that homework is mostly (if not entirely) Bullshit. This is obvious to the 13 year old, and you will lose credibility by insisting that it is providing significant long-term value for them.
I also think it’s important to acknowledge that things are changing rapidly enough that your guesses about the future probably aren’t going to be that much better than theirs (unless you have the calibration record to flex with). They genuinely have a lot more information about what the local incentives are like now. What you do (likely) have an advantage in is the wisdom to know that this is worth thinking seriously about.

Was this comment meant to be in reply to me, or the OP? (I agree with these points and think I covered them in my response.)
