Expectations on your children...

Wrt their working status/parenting as an adult?
If you SAH, will you encourage your daughter (or son) to do the same? How would you feel if they chose different from the path you have taken as a parent?

No, if mother paid for college, which she was planning to do for all of us, then yes we had to major in what she said and get the degree in that field. However, I could have easily went to college on my own through sources other than mother paying for it and majored in home economics, interior design or whatever. I did not desire to go to college. So I did not go.
My mother & I could be on the very best mother/daughter terms & I would have chosen not to go to college.
My mother could have still been the way she is and said I could major in anything I wanted, I still would not have gone to college.
My decision to not go to college had nothing to do with my mother, but all about myself. Dh did not go to college either.
My siblings didn't go to college but they weren't in spite of my mother. Like I, they had other ideas for their life & have been successful.

I don't care what dd does with her life, it is hers. She decides never to marry, that is fine.
Okaaaaaaaaaay.
