like to return to school but are afraid it can’t be done because of money prob- lems?
Many women who put their school
goals on hold get to a point where it seems impossible to reverse that decision. It’s not easy to work, raise a family, and go to school all at the same time. If you are the mother of one child or several, it costs money to raise children and moms typi- cally put their own wishes aside in favor of providing for their kids. It’s just the na- ture of a woman to willingly make those sacrifices. In a recent report describing Obama’s
goal of increasing the Federal Pell Grant, it was demonstrated that with the increase in the number of people applying for the grant, and the increased amount of the grant ($5,500 in 2010), there might be as many as 260,000 people who would be able to return to school. President Obama’s fervent wish has been that mothers would be some of the beneficiaries of these grants so that they might further their ca- reers or even find new careers that would give them a better job and more money in the future.

continue your schooling is that you will be able to study online in the comfort of your home and in your own time.

Working all day, managing a home and studying for daily work and exams was just too exhausting.

The changes that are taking place will go a long way toward cementing families and making our society stronger in the pro- cess. Source:
