frustrated

Published

Hello! I am currently a nursing student as well as a mother of seven. I was recently approached by my advisor she would like to recommend me for a full scholarship to an Ivy Leagu institution. I want this opprotunity but I am having a difficult time convincing my childrens father to support me on this!! He does not value education as much as I do. He feels two years is enough I can get a job as an RN end of story:argue:. I would like to be a nurse practitioner and feel this would be a tremendous advantage. I am so frustrated with him at this point!

We have 1, 2, 3 and 4y/o that he stays home with now I am supporting the family financially he has "days off" as well as a social life outside of us. I was a stay at home mom for years and know it can be a challenge but he has time to relax I don't even ask for that!:banghead: Am I being unreasonable? How can I get him behind me on this???

Did I read your original post correctly??? You are 28 yo with SEVEN kids? OMG - if you're still sane after that, I believe you can do just about anything you put your mind to. You Go Girl!
