Hi all: Long time lurker, first time poster. I have to say, I am extremely disappointed in Maddie. She used to be one of my favorite kids. Let's face it, there's no way she's going to finish a BSN, let alone become a nurse practitioner.
On another note, has anyone noticed how much more successful the older boys have become than the girls? Logan is working on an MBA, the two other older boys working on military careers? I truly think its a difference in the way the boys and the girls have been socialized in the family, even if its subliminal. The girls have been socialized to get married young and start popping out babies, and I think the boys have been told to focus on being able to provide. I also think their high school sports activities introduced them to different lifestyles.
