dzook

ok here's the thing. My hubby is deployed to iraq and i am in school full time with 2 kids in daycare and 1 in kindergarten. The only way we are affording for me to go to school is because hubby is making extra money while deployed..so i'm not having to work. when he returns i will HAVE to go to work. SOOOOO my goal is to become an RN but i am thinking i should do the one year LPN/LVN program and get a job as that when he gets home and go part time for my RN while working. I think its the best route to go because if i stick with straight RN then i will still have about 3 semesters left when he gets home...how do i finish that way if i have to work full time and as a secretary at that making 10 an hour?? well the reason i'm unsure is because my mother (a RN) tells me that LVN's get paid crap for what they do and that the transition course to RN is a waste of time. PLEASE HELP>>>>what should i do???
