Mothering

So much for my socially conscious kids! My daughter just used her blog to look for single men. She did specify what kind of men, but still...............

Actually, among the things I don't understand, my daughter's lack of male companionship may rank the highest. She is attractive, intelligent, witty, and just generally a very pleasant person with whom to associate. She has and always has had a remarkable ability to enjoy the moment and not become jaded. I have to assume her situation results from two things:

1. In high school she thought all the boys were jerks (probably rightly so) and pretty much let that opinion be know. This may have kept the boys away at a time when young people are learning the "ropes".

2. Her schedule and life style just simply do not lend themselves to the opportunity to meet people, male or otherwise. She has lived at home all through her college career, she works Friday and Saturday nights, and don't suggest she should meet men at church. Our church is small and we have attended there since she was in the second grade. Even if she were a regular attendee, which she is not, she has known all the young men there for years and there really are not prospects.

I have to go or end up in divorce court. Kristy, be careful.
