I'm sure you want to raise your D to be an independent woman who can take care of herself. Don't you want the same thing for your W? It's good for W and it's good for D to have a strong role model. Since W isn't being a good role model in other areas (ahem) it would be good for D to see her handling her own responsibilities. Make sense?
good point!
and yeah, I will be making a house hunting trip in the coming weeks. Advice on area would always be appreciated.
