What is she marries a minister? Or a teacher? Also, people are living longer and longer. 48 is very young to be retired now. By the time your daughter is 48, it may be unheard of to retire before your 70s.
All I meant by that was that I'm not sure asking her what she wants to do after kids would be that revealing. Who knows, my mind may even change in the next 10+ years. We'll see!
