“Chaos Unleashed: How a Mom’s Bold College Visit with Her Toddler Ignited a Controversy!”
Money doesn’t grow on trees, as some kids would like to believe. And many moms not only have to pay their way through college, but also support themselves and their child or children. Some must also pay their children’s school fees. This might mean taking on several jobs, sacrificing time and sleep, or getting into debt.
Then there’s the issue of childcare. Young children require constant supervision, and this often means paying someone to look after the kid(s) while mom is at work or in school. Some colleges provide childcare on campus; some don’t.
“Instructors themselves can help lessen this challenge for their students by making accommodations and modifications for parents that allow them to juggle their parenting duties and their coursework,” notes Study.com. “Examples include allowing children in the class and developing family-friendly syllabus policies.” But of course, that won’t always work for the child-free students in class, especially when the children are loud or disruptive. Hence, the man’s online rant.
How to manage working or studying as a single mom
As the guy rightfully noted, online classes are an option. Many higher education institutions offer courses and degree programs that you don’t have to attend in-person. “These are the best choice for single parents (as long as they are accredited), because they allow the ultimate flexibility,” notes Study.com. “More importantly, online courses and programs allow single parents to learn at home and access all their course materials online. This saves money by avoiding food, supplies, parking, and gas costs.”
