[quote=Anonymous]PP here doing better than my parents, thanks to my hard-working, no-fun-having, money-managing DH. My parents let me pursue a dumb major and career -- journalism. I would never encourage my kids to pursue such a thing (nevermind their father would never dream of allowing it), but my parents were ex-hippie boomers who encouraged us to "follow our dreams" and be "whatever we want." They also "let" me finish HS in the bottom third of my class because I preferred partying, waved me off to a lower-tier out-of-state flagship party school, move to the big city for an unpaid internship and wait tables...the list goes on. Were the negligent as hell? Oh yes, especially by DCUM standards. Could I have done better with their help? Sure. But the choices and mistakes were mine. I live with them. They live with their own self-created problems.[/quote]
