  • As long as she is a good mother and is working to save money for the family, it's ok. Btw, normal

    Her dancing is hot ! Especially the show she does with the dozen hotdogs ( is it true they are frozen ? ) I couldn't believe it the first time I saw her do it - now I go every night.

    Just something about pole dancers and pork products combined really works !

    Look on the bright side at least she is not doing a donkey show.

    Also, realize it takes a very strong woman (mental) to do that type of job. It takes alot of courage on her part to know the consequences and risks of that type of job, but yet going and doing it for survival. Trust me, I am sure it is not the life she envisioned. People don't just roll out of the bed and decide to be strippers. She really had to make a big decision to move forward with it. So, cut her some slack and give her some respect. Its not easy and its not glamorous.

    Don't worry too much about it. The best thing you can do is let your mom know you and love and care about her. Above all else, you appreciate everything she does to support and raise you. There will be a day when she stops this occupation, it won't last forever. So when that day comes, you want her coming out of it knowing that you love and support her no matter what her decision.

    Don't dwell on it too much. It is more common than you think. Just keep it to yourself and don't announce it to your friends or the world.

    Guess shes desperate for money. I would have taken the career training path. Like LPN. What happens when she gets old?

    Yes it is normal to be embarrssed but talk to ur mom and ask her to keep it private and just pray no one finds out. Another thing to think about she is just dancing and it's not like she is having sex for money so think of all the pathetic guys who spend all their money on women who just dance. It is good money and if it's only dancing it's really not that bad
