[quote=Anonymous]I don't think your dd is a failure. In fact I've never made as much as your dd and I've never been a failure. Had no support from parents ever but got cheap housing, met dh who makes plenty of money (we met young and he did not at the time, I paid for things) Now I work FT, make little but have great health insurance for our family through my job. Most importantly, I feel fulfilled and happy and secure. Sounds like your dd has a good partner, a stable job. There might be too much pressure on your part to make success about income and falling short of YOUR expectations rather than just about her actual successes. You should be encouraging her and validating her rather than encouraging unhelpful comparisons.[/quote]
