[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Joleen[/quote]

Joleen is a quiet girl but a gifted scholar.  She is a big science fiction and fantasty fan and is now horrified by the mess The Game of Throne series has become.  Because of her interest in manga, she has outside of school, enrolled in Japanese classes and is now quite fluent.  She will graduate high school as salutatorian and will go off to Yale.  She starts off as a biochemistry major.  However, she starts hating the grind of higher level biochemistry labs and all the brown nosing premed students.  She toys with the idea of switching her major to landscape architecture.  You, her parents, are alarmed at this and threaten to stop sending her her monthly stipend if she does this.  Ever the diligent child, she even manages to get her Ph.D by spending next six years at Johns Hopkins studying embryonic cell lineage in C. elegans.

You are very different than your child.  You are a graphic designer.  You enjoy hot yoga and wear Tory Burch and back in college.  To lose that last 10 lbs, you have switched to a gluten free diet.  It worked and you are looking better than ever.  You like going to charity balls with your DH and are active in the local Junior League chapter.  DH has recently  started doing the Insanity workout tapes.  He is looking very buff.  Together you make a handsome couple.

While you applaud your daughter's decision to continue doing science, you will have no idea what she's talking about half the time.   Even your DH, a cardiologist, won't truly understand your daughter's research. It's an enigma.  You try looking up science terms in the dictionary and those definitions each have about 10 additional words that you don't recognize.  You give up and just hope and pray that your daughter will get a tenure track position somewhere and NIH grants forevermore.[/quote]
