Going Back To School
November 18th, 2010
As women we celebrate new adventures and joyfully enter new phases of life. Many women get to a certain point in their lives, often after having raised kids, where they are ready for a new challenge. And this new challenge might be learning a new skill or even starting a new career.
For many women, the challenge of choice is a college education. I’ve known several mothers who, after spending 4-6 years raising kids with very little intellectual stimulation, choose to go back to school to get re-baptized into the world of adult life… a new start.
But going back to school later in life isn’t without challenges. Especially as a parent if you still have kids in the home. It’s a balancing act and sometimes you just won’t have enough time. But just because you can’t experience college like a single young adult who’s 18 years old, doesn’t mean it’s not worth your effort. It might just be the challenge you were looking for.
