[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That is not the schools job. That is the job of her parents who failed her. [/quote] +1 was coming in here to say this. If she can't navigate what she'll face when she moves into her own home - married or no - that's your husband and her mother's fault. It's not the school's job to teach young people how to Adult. School is for preparing you to go to college or enter the workforce. Everything else is a parents job. The whole point of raising a child is giving them the tools to navigate life successfully. Maybe you should take this failure up with your husband. Or you could use it as a bonding activity: "My mother always said a woman should be able to do X, Y, & Z when she was married. I'm so happy for you now that your marriage is approaching and [i]if you're at all interested in learning them,[/i] I'd love to pass on some of these skills to you." If she says yes, there you go. If she say's no thank you, let it go.[/quote]
