My parents were the kind that no matter how nice/successful/great guy you happened to be dating was, you should dump him and concentrate on your school! They always got upset to see a daughter (there's 5, no boys) start dating! They see children and men as obstacles to their daughters professional life, heh.

My parents used to be like that, too. I posted about this earlier on this thread... My dad didn't want me dating until I had my doctorate.
He felt that I should concentrate on my studies. On one occasion, when I was going through a particularly painful breakup, he actually said, "Good."
While it is good that I didn't end up marrying that @$$hole, that was not what I needed to hear at the time!
Now, of course, my folks and my inlaws are getting older, and they want to be grandparents already. (DH and I are only children, so the only way they can get grandkids is through us.) Not a family gathering goes by that I don't get at least one hint. On top of that, my MIL expects that I will quit my job and stay home!
Okay, </rant> I feel better now
