I have a huge problem. I'm in 10th grade and the school wants me to pick what I want to be when I "grow up" and go to college. What I REALLY want to be is a stay at home mom who raises kids and takes care of a husband. I know most girls don't want that any more and they want to be out there in the workforce but it just isn't what I want for myself.
The school wants me to choose a "real" job though. We have an occupation list we can choose from with some ideas and nothing on there says what I want. I tried to explain that I don't want to go to college and become a brain surgeon. They told me I HAVE to choose something. I think it's GREAT other girls want to do those types of things, spend all of that time in college, and earn great degrees...but that ain't me.
What do I do? I don't plan to go to college for anything other than to take a couple of classes just to have that experience. I figure after I get out of high school I'd work as a cashier or in a daycare or something until I end up getting married and settling down with someone. The school won't listen and tells me it's nonsense.
So, what do I do? I mean, what should I choose, if anything? I feel like I'm backed into a corner here. What ever happened to being able to grow up to be whatever you want to be? I told my mom and my dad and they're both kind of mad that the teachers won't acknowledge what I want to be. Nothing else really interests me as something I want to do for the rest of my life. I just want to get married, have babies, and take care of my husband, children, and home. What do I do? (link)
