[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This has actually come out of my MIL's mouth several times: My daughter is so pretty that it doesn't matter if she does well in school or not. My daughter will find a nice guy to support her when she becomes an adult. We shouldn't waste our money or efforts on educational testing, IEP meetings, and tutoring. [/quote] This is the mentality of my in-laws with regard to females. Actually it's even the mentality of a friend of mine. She wishes it was her daughter who was the one with learning issues instead of her son and she wishes her daughter wasn't so driven and competitive because she says it will hard to marry her off if she becomes too successful.[/quote]
