[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Assuming that debt or at very least, sacrifice on behalf of family is involved.
My friend, who has a postgraduate degree but quit as soon as was pregnant and never went back, tells me her daughter says she wants to be a stay at home parent, but wants to go to college 'because it's fun' and maybe she will meet someone there. 
I am never at a loss for advice but I was here. [/quote]

There are plenty of us out there.  Women with education and skills who don’t use them.   I know three attorneys who don’t practice and never will.   I took the LSAT and almost applied but we needed to move so I delayed.  I’m so glad I didn’t waste time and money because I liked the open schedule with the kids to do what we wanted to and what we needed to. When you’re a stay at home mother you get to know the others and you find out there’s a lot of them.

Just because she wants to be a stay at home mother doesn’t mean she should skip a college education.    A liberal arts study will give her knowledge and skills that can help with raising children. Plus college is fun![/quote]
