Being a kid has so many perks - starting with the fact that you don't really have to worry about such things as rent or dinner and ending with an unspoiled imagination that can take you wherever you want. And dreaming can also lead to learning about your future dream job, whether it'd be being a dog, a mailbox, a ninja or Batman, we've all had some crazy plans for our future. Some of them are totally doable, while others, sadly, not so much.
We here at Bored Panda have compiled a list of the craziest and funniest life goals that these smart kids had planned for themselves, and it's the best! We sure are jealous about some of their futures, though we'd rather skip the one about being a potato.
Does your funny kid have any cute or hilarious life goals? Or maybe you yourself had some incredible plans? Add your picture with adorable things kids say about their future to the list and don't forget to vote!

Yes, this is a fake. The drawing was done by a 17yo girl attempting to have it appear like a child drew a stripper. She posted it to her MySpace account where it was taken and the teacher/parent comments added. http://www.snopes.com/embarrass/mistaken/shovel.asp

And so shall you be on every full moon after you were bitten by Fenrir Greyback. But beware child! The brightest witch of our age once said that you would not know what you were doing, you would even kill your own best friend if you got the chance. But you can temporarily prevent these savage outbursts. Just go to your local Potions Master and ask for a Wolfsbane Potion. This should help.
