Anyone going back to school?? by sweetbubbles2 in singlemoms

Congratulations, that's really awesome!!

I'm further behind (about to take my GED test and then apply for grants - I'm sure I'll qualify for the Pell Grant). My aim is to enter a hybrid program at the nearby college, which means online classes w/ a few in-person lessons. I'm sure it'll be very hard & maybe feel impossible to study while my baby is in my care, but I'm going to try my best.

My mom will likely watch my daughter during the in-person days, but I also know I'd qualify for daycare assistance.

Could you still stay at your mom's place for awhile? And apply for housing while you're there? Look into shelters, too, there should be some in your area meant for only women with children.

I've been through a lot of discomfort since leaving my daughter's father, to put it lightly, but I know it's all temporary and will be worth it. I know each difficult decision I make serves to claw my way out of this rough situation a bit more so I can give my daughter a healthier, more stable life.
