I have a daughter and a son (with ADHD and a few other challanges).

And she wants to make kids with said guy and thinks she's going to be a stay at home mom?
I would definitely question that, and would be very concerned.

I'm probably being a little overly parental in other ways, though, because if my daughter added ADHD or OCD to her list of complaints, I would feel the need to remind her that her brother has ADHD, or that a cousin she loves (who is doing very well) has OCD.

I get what you're saying, though.
