Single Mothers Get Education to increase their welfare


The newest, the most ancient history of the book: Man and woman meet, look lovingly in each other's eyes, they decide to love and want to spend the rest of their life together! Working at night to make ends meet, working days. They get married or move in together, and a couple of times, security is lax or forgotten ... One day, he wakes up and realizes she's carrying his child! At first, everything is wonderful, he is happy, she is happy, who care about each other and the child. He convinces her to leave work so I can take care of the child, and proceed to work two jobs to make the rent and all the extra money they need.

The child is, but Dad had to pull an extra step to make ends meet and lacking it. He begins to think of what is missing and wonders if it is still an essential part of the family at this point. He begins to spend more time with his friends instead of with his family. He sits at home, unable to think of what can be done to get the father of her child to take interest in her again. Everything had changed since the early years of their life together. He puts on a brave face for the child (not their son, but his) and decides that he needs to get out of his life.

After trying unsuccessfully to speak with him one day while he is away at work or your friends or ... she did not even know where it goes over, she calls her mother and asks to go home.

His mother has his doubts - he disapproved of the choice of his daughter to live with the man she lived with, and she disapproved of her daughter's decision to keep the baby, although she loved the child and loved to spoil her niece, also She disapproved of broken families. She especially thought it was terrible of her daughter not to get out with the father of her grandson, but if she asked to live with her, would allow her to live with her.

She did not have much education. Only a high school diploma and one year in college to complete pre-requisite classes. She does not feel like getting a proper job. It 'grew more depressed. Eventually, he persuaded his mother to take care of her baby during the night, while she has a job at night. He could not afford daycare, and so was forced to work at night. However, his work earned little more than 17K/year and it was very rewarding to run a cash register in a store during the night. In fact, even though she was part of a union and has received the benefits union, its benefits do not relate to its small family, only her. As she worked, saved a bit 'at a time. He was not sure when he needed, and she could only put aside about $ 20 every month after the milk and diapers and baby clothes and everything else, but it was something!

If only I could get into school again, if only I had time! Could I have a degree in Nursing and care about me and my baby! But where would I get the money? Where can I get the time? If I stay home during the day to take care of my child, and work at night, how can I find the time to study?

He explored his options. She went to a university, and she could not see the proposition of a newborn baby in a dorm room, and if there was a school nearby community who care classes offered, he could not imagine who would take care of child while she was away at class. It was not about to leave the child alone in a crib for several hours a day!

One day, while feeding the baby, who was surfing the internet looking for answers. "Come on Google, give me the good stuff," he murmured softly as not to disturb the child. Typing with one hand, he sought and found the school of nursing online courses. Amazed that there would be such a thing, read more about it. found that online courses involves sitting at his computer for an hour or two a day and view online content provided by the teacher and the school. They do not seem to offer more or less than any other school that had looked, but the biggest advantage is that he could attend school and do not leave your child at home, and she could do her schoolwork whenever she had time to day that could be easily programmed, as soon after you wake up every afternoon.

At this point, he wondered if he would be able to afford nursing school. She certainly has not done enough in his work, but maybe there were scholarships and loans available for single mothers like her. After a quick look, he discovered that there were, in fact, grants available for single mothers.

Filling out a FAFSA, you qualify for need. Satisfied, he enrolled in school and take the first steps along the road to improve herself for her child and herself! ......
