I suggest starting a new thread for those wanting to reminisce about learning computers. (I might participate.) But the OP is asking how to get out of that.

Your parents think because you use a computer you should become a programmer? Do they use light switches and plug things into outlets? Does that mean they became electricians? Do they drive cars? Did they become mechanics? Do they eat? Did they become farmers or ranchers?

If you're interested in research into human nature, then go for it. Do be aware that studies like that require a fair amount of math, though, so work on your algebra and statistics skills. And while you might not like programming, you'll be crunching a lot of data, so learn how to use analysis tools, starting with spreadsheets and working up to bigger tools.
