[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 664296, member: 1550"] I truly had no expectations for my kids except they had a career (no college necessary) and were happy. I did not want anything else beyond that and that is the God's honest truth. Am I the exception? Maybe. I am more proud of Princess for being a deliberate stay-at-home mother who gets to actually raise her own daughter every single day than if she had gone out to work, leaving her baby in childcare, even if it meant more money. But I would have accepted anything s he wanted to do. I practice acceptance, as learned from my Saintly Mother-in-Law who I talk to every day. I do think it is part of what made me a good mother. Would I be horrified if they were homeless on drugs? YES!!!! There are some things I can not accpet so I get when others can't. I thought my daughter was heading t here, so I do understand THAT sort of shouting of, "THAT'S NOT RIGHT!!!!!!!!!" [/QUOTE]
