Is That Your Final Answer?

Anyway, December 2007 rolls around and my middle child (female) is having a conversation with my oldest child (male). My oldest child tells her that when he grows up, he will have to go to college for a long time because he is going to be an anesthesiologist. My middle child explains to him that she will not need to go to college at all. Since she is a girl, she is just going to be a mom. :eek:

Shortly after that, I met all of the fine people on this forum.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/QUOTE]

I think that's sweet, you are obviously a positive role model on your daughter. I want to tell you that I support and encourage you, especially your decision to make being a good mom a priority. Your daughter sees this, and I think she was probably very proud to think that she too would be a mom.

Encourage your daughter to go to college, but help keep her centered on knowing when to put her own children (your grandchildren) front and center. Being someone else's employee is fine, but highly overrated at being "THE" purpose of ones life.
