[quote=Anonymous]This is a kind of weird thread, but no, I would not be happy if my DD were really serious about a guy who refused to get engaged or married until after he finished a 7-8 year PhD program because he felt he needed to focus on his research in the interim and have a paying job before he could take a wife due to his family’s cultural expectations. I’m very respectful of my young adult kids’ independence, but this situation would make me extremely uneasy. My DD is a very serious student in a five year PhD program in the sciences who has a serious boyfriend she’s living with. I expect they’ll be engaged soon, and I think having a working partner is great for a PhD or medical student so long as they are both doing their share. If you love each other, you love each other. Life together begins at the point you realize that. [/quote]
