She sounds like some kind of business woman. Especially when she mentioned that she has a career. And then looks down on every service jobs she considers as less important

Yeah my thoughts exactly.I am an artist and musician and worked janitorial cleaning up after people with this attitude. Work is work and people who look down on other workers are trash. If it wasn't For her doubling down on that attitude I would say nta but..eh. attitude: terrible, response to situation: understandable.

I supported 2 kids on a barlady salary with very little contribution from their father. This lady can go to hell with her snobbish attitude

She really showed herself to be a smug trashy person herself with that post. 100 ways to get her "question" across or the situation and she choose poorly.

I agree. She's within her rights to ask the daughter to move out and ask her boyfriend to step up but this woman also sounds like a pretty horrible and self-absorbed person.

-Good- bartenders make people happy. But -bad- bartenders over-serve people and can contribute to drunk driving.... She also said it was fine for a college student, but not as a career.

I wonder if it's more an anti-alcohol stance. Doesn't like alcohol so therefore believes bartenders just enable drunks.

I have a coworker who tends bar on the weekends to unwind from the stress of teaching. She has a blast and makes a ton of money. There is nothing wrong with this line of work.

the way I see it, since OP is booting her kid out on to the streets, op has zero right to comment on anything her daughter is now forced to do to survive, be it d**g dealing, prostitution, bartending, stripping, nothing.

Clearly bartenders contribute less than the trumped-up boyscout she married.

My father thought the same. He told me to get an abortion, or give the baby up. He thought I was throwing my life away. I refused, and gave birth to my lovely daughter. He has spent the whole of my daughter's life, almost 30 years, trying to make up for what he said after I told him I was expecting. He loves her dearly, and despite what he said then, he is proud of me for standing my ground. Mom in the story can say what she wants, and it is her house - she doesn't have to share, but she shouldn't be surprised that her daughter won't talk to her right now. And while you may think the "poor silly girl" is ruining her life, you are judging someone without knowing them. It might be bad, but then again, it might be the best thing that ever happens to this young lady.
