My parents have always had hi expectations of me. They are both in their 70’s and work. I was admitted to medical school years ago and it was the only time I felt my dad really loved me. I decided to get married and surprisingly got pregnant. I tried to defer school, but when my dad found out I was pregnant, his first words were “great. Now you’ll never be anything!” He has a thing about me having a career.
