“Same experience, except my mother's sole remark was to ask why I "wasted all my husband's money" (I paid with my own) for a 'useless degree.' Only university graduate in the entire family tree.”
@modernluxuries said:
“Congrats! Word of advice, start ignoring them now. They will recognize your degree when they need advice, money for the next baby shower or getting out of prison party. Move on, love yourself and start celebrating you on your own terms.”

“Congratulations! My mom didn’t come to mine because her hair wasn’t done ♀️ also first generation and BF also didn’t do anything for me not a flower or nothing ”
