I am now in my last 2 years of high school so many people ask me what I want to do with my life & I've been judged so many times when I say the only thing I am sure of is that I want to be a wife & mom, people look at me like I'm crazy and as if that's not a real goal or job when I absolutely believe it is. Even when I say I'd like to run an in home daycare or nanny or pre k / kindergarten / first grade teacher people roll their eyes saying I won't make a ton of money & when I say that it's about the passion not the money & my husband will be the main provider as he should anyway people are sooo quick to judge me and it gets really draining. Please pray for their minds and hearts and that they can understand my desires.

Hey Lacey, Listen...I believe your perspective here is a little off...since when does it matter if people are okay with or in agreement with what you want to do with your life? At the end of the day if you're passionate about what you want to do (which you are) and content with that (which appears you are) then what's the problem? Changing their viewpoint won't change your desires any more than now when they think your goals are "dumb". What I suggest you begin praying for is a more discerning heart and pray that God guide you to where he wants you to be :). There will always be opposition when we are walking in God's will coming from all over...you just have to keep your eye on the "prize" :)

Take Care God Bless!
