Your dd is 18, graduated high school, has a scholarship for college.

One day she comes to you and says she doesnt want to go to college. All she wants to do is be a stay at home mom.

Your daughter doesnt even have a boyfriend.

How do you react?

I would leave the house and not come back till I calmed down, then I would leave again because I don't want her to struggle and believe that it lasts forever when it doesn't always. I need her to have a plan b NEED I don't want my life for her.

But how can they be a stay at home parent with no kid.

Quoting DuncansMommy:

I would be supportive. I don't want to be hypocritical when I tell my kids they can be anything they want. Being anything they want includes being a stay at home parent.

I think they mean, once they have kids, they would be.
