Done raising your kids? Why not go back to school?
July 21, 2011
Most moms think their kids are the best - funny, smart and nice. If you feel you've done a great job raising your children, but now you're feeling the empty nest syndrome since all of them have flown the coop, it may be time to sit back and do something you can be proud of all on your own.
One way to be successful in filling your time and your mind is by going back to school to earn a degree. Whether you already have one from back in the day before you started raising your family, or if higher education may be all new to you, you'll be able to transition to student life easily through online college.
By taking courses online, you'll be able to take your time and finally go after a career you've always wanted. With many unique majors and specifications, you'll be able to really hone in on what interests you. Scholarships for parents are also out there and may give you the added cushion to help pay for your education, so if it was an issue that was holding you back before, it may not be now. Make your dreams a reality now, and be proud of a new accomplishment.
