Britannia gave birth to a daughter to successfully marry her

What can you hear in response to a question about whichDo the parents want their fate for their precious child? First of all, "that he was happy." Good work, material well-being, love of all life - it's all already a particular. But Jocelyn Cook, mother of the little Megan, in her dreams went much farther. She already almost completely planned the life of her daughter. Joe's main goal is to successfully marry Megan. Requirements for the candidate have already been formulated. But Megan barely turned six months old! "Jocelyn shared her hopes and aspirations on her social network page:" I want Megan, my only child, to get married well. I already found a young man who, I think, will do her the best. His name is Edward, he has a charming smile, dark hair, blue eyes, and he is always dressed with a needle. Moreover, he has well-to-do parents, from his house in Kent, he is rich and flawless, "Jocelyn writes.A photo: Lara King The future mother-in-law knows practically everything about the family with whom she intends to become related through her daughter: where the parents of the potential groom work, how much money they have, even what kind of view opens from the terrace of their magnificent house. And she's not at all embarrassed that Edward is not even a year old yet. "Perhaps it will surprise you that I am so frank about my plans for Megan. But how rich parents plan for their children to study in Eton, so I will lead my girl to her feminine happiness, "demonstrates the mother's firm intentions. Jocelyn does not even mind being compared to Mrs. Bennet - the mother of Jane Austen's novel" Pride and prejudice. " She also wanted more than anything in the world, that her daughters successfully married. After the requirements for the groom, Jocelyn goes on to list the dignity of her daughter - you must show the goods to the person: "Megan is a beautiful child, she has blonde hair, cute little dimples on her cheeks, big blue eyes and tender feminine features. I'm sure that she will grow into a beautiful young woman, and her physical attractiveness, I hope, will give her an advantage. "However, Joe stipulates that she can not choose her husband for the daughter in the literal sense - suddenly she will not like it. But to design such an environment in which Megan can find the husband of her mother's dreams, Jocelyn is quite able. For example, giving a child to a good university is expensive, but Megan will be surrounded exclusively by worthy candidates for husbands. Remember, just like in the movie "How to marry a millionaire" with Marilyn Monroe. There, after all, too, the heroines left the last money in an expensive hotel in order to find a worthy sacrifice among its guests and to solve their material problems once and for all.Photo:Still from the film "How to Marry a Millionaire"It may sound funny, but Jocelyn was led to the idea that the best way for her daughter to achieve well-being in life is a successful marriage by... feminist sentiments. "Women, no matter how you look at it, are paid less than a man is paid for the same work. My husband and I have to work long and hard to provide ourselves with a decent standard of living. I don't want Megan to have to toil the same way to provide for herself," the mother summarizes. And therefore, "the desire to find the ideal husband should prevail over the desire to get a profession and slave away her entire life." Torn between children and work? No, this is not the fate a loving mother wants for her child. "A young businessman or banker who can afford to pay for the services of a housekeeper and a nanny" - that's much more like an ideal life. "I'm happy with my life. I have a wonderful loving husband. But we all dream of the best for our children. "Remaining mediocre and always being second is not it. That's why I have my sights set on young Edward. And when Megan celebrates her first birthday next April (not at godforsaken McDonald's, but at a posh little cafe), I'll make sure Edward gets a gold-rimmed invitation to the party."
