If they want to keep working there, then don't tell them anything. You have to be able to wake up every day and go to work, so if working as a server makes them happy, nothing's going to change that.
If they ask for your advice...you can always let them know that an important thing to consider is what a position's ceiling is. If you're making 35,000 now, but will top off at that, then is that what you want? Would you rather have a job with less of a starting salary but more room for income growth?
Honestly though, it's their choice. I feel like chosing one's profession is a very personal thing, and I wouldn't give anyone advice unless they explicitly asked for it.
