[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Either you were a SAHM or your 5 kids were raised by daycare/nannies. Sounds like your son either wants a SAHM too or wants his kids raised differently. [b]How is she as a person? How does she treat your son? [/b] [/quote] This. That’s all that matters. They might be about that tradwife life. If they are both on board, and she is a good person who treats him well - then mazel tov![/quote] ^ This is a valid point. For all OP knows, this may be exactly what her son wants - a wife who doesn't have any interest in working and who essentially waits for his return from the office every day. Add in some kids and they may see that as the perfect marriage. In any case, OP, you don't have any control over this. None. If your son approaches you and asks your opinion be honest with him. But otherwise it's not your decision to make or try and influence. FWIW I have a relative with a university degree and a high-paying professional career who married someone who didn't even have a GED, worked in retail and lived in the spare room of a relative. They married within a year of meeting and began having kids right away (now working on #5) and claim to be blissfully happy. So be it. To each their own. (FWIW, the person with the career is the woman and the man worked retail.) [/quote]
