Why is it important to receive higher education?

10/17/2016

0 Comments

 
A lot of people struggle with going to school or working.  Why is getting an education important when you need money to support your child/children now?  Especially mothers, we need to find ways to provide for our children.  We need to work to have the funds available to support our children.  We have to look beyond now and look into our future, and having a higher education can help your future become secure.  Growing up I always wondered why my mom pushed education on me so hard.  Who likes waking up early for school?  I never knew how much education could be important until I got older.  Higher education offers graduates more jobs to choose from than those who didn't continue their schooling.  Higher education also improves an individual's quality of life.  By having a higher education, you have more access to better healthcare, better jobs, and more stability in life!
When I first found out about being pregnant, I wanted to work to make sure I had enough money to take care of my daughter.  I had to realize the bigger picture and that was that my daughter needed a stable future.  The best decision you can make for your children is giving them a stable future.  I love New Beginnings and the mission behind continuing your education.  Providing the best resources and guiding them while they're in school.  I’m working while in school, but I always make sure my education comes first.  Higher education will help you expand your knowledge and skills.  It will prepare you for things you need to know in the world.  I want to teach my daughter that with God anything is possible.  While I’m going to school and taking care of my daughter, it is teaching her the importance of education.
