A growing number of young adults say they favor entrepreneurship.

Confirming what parents everywhere probably already know, teenagers overwhelmingly prefer being their own boss, according to a new survey.

Of more than 1,400 teens surveyed across the nation earlier this year, nearly 71% said they would like to run a business someday, up from 64% in 2004, according to the fifth-annual Junior Achievement Worldwide “Interprise” Poll on Entrepreneurship.

Some 32% said they want to start a business in professional services — the most popular industry — including law firms, insurance agencies, and accounting firms, the survey found.
