Our daughter said she's atheist even after we explained it'd be hard living on a female gym teacher's salary..?

Frankly, we are at a loss; any advice?

Update:

Girl on fire: Gosh, I hope she doesn't end up rug-munching with you; I don't think we'd get along.

Update 2:

Jared, I'm sorry you didn't get to have Judy Garland and Liberace as your parents, but those are the breaks. You can always pretend.

Update 3:

I know what you mean, Gaz. lol :)

Ren, we have to meet one of these days at, say, The Party Doll in San Bernardino, lol.

    Well, darling, a gym teacher may not make a lot of money, but think of the savings on shoes!!! You should celebrate the fact that she's a girl who will never spend a dime on a pair of Jimmy Choos.

    And this means what exactly? That if your daughter is an atheist she must therefore be gay? That only gay women are gym teachers? That your daughter can only become a gym teacher? That if she is a gym teacher she will be destitute? Yes I have advice. Because she will believe and feel as she wants to anyway, then enjoy who your daughter is rather than wanting her to be someone else that you think you would enjoy more. Instead of worrying so much about her beliefs why not think about your own. If you are Christian then act like it. Love her.

    Im atheist and Wicca no not a witch my religion anyways i see being atheist as a path chosen by people who are raised into it or have a very inquisitive way, or just dont want to believe... in any case i think that whatever path is chosen is what the chooser thinks is best and that if thats what your daughter wants you should just let her be her own person...

    Glad your not my parents. I feel bad for your daughter.

    Personally, I think it would be harder having you as a father.
