To the OP,
You can't help how you feel. You might consider that everyone is different and chooses differently. For whatever the reason, your daughter has chosen to see this through. I think it is true that sometimes moms get so wrapped up in the choices our children make, we can't separate what is their choice and what is ours to choose. I do think she will sense that you are uncomfortable with her decision and that will hurt her. I have several children and have tried to live the 'whatever they are is good enough, and hope they are able to apply it to me, and everyone in their lives. And, the truth is, it's not about you. If you just love her and help her with the choices she makes, it might help you both. Good luck.
