So I spent the last 2 hours talking to a female cousin I rarely see (her family just came to visit NYC). She's about to be a senior in high school. She haslow grades, no extracurriculars, a 1600 on her SATs (chill, that's out of the 2400 not 1600). I asked her what her prospects were and she has NO idea whereshe's gonna apply or what major she's interested in.
However when my mom began cooking dinner, she was getting busy in the kitchen helping out. My brother joked that we should just get her married off. It wasthen that it hit me, do some girls give up on college/job prospects and just decide to find a man to marry? And they don't actively seek that, is being astay-at-home mom a fall back if they don't find success in other areas of life? I know I prefaced this with a personal story but I'm just trying tofigure out what goes through a female's head when they consider their future.
NO PICS.
