| Obama's Scholarship Program Allows Mothers to Find Higher Paying Jobs Through Better Education |
Mothers across the United States are raising children on mere amounts of money, struggling to simply survive. As children they were taught as their mothers were, to clean, cook, and assist with raising their siblings. Young girls were seldom encouraged to prepare for college and high powered careers, believing that as adults they would be in a "family un it" with a spouse to help with the mortgage, utility bills and buy the groceries.
Now grown with children of their own, in a single parent household, mothers everywhere are on their own uneducated and unprepared. There isn't a mortgage because they are able to only afford the low rent, one or two bedroom apartment to cram the family in. The bills get pushed back with minimum payments made in order to pay for day care. They are the waitress's, the housekeepers, the store clerk and the hundreds of other hard working, low paid employee, they are the mother's. Mother's with only a high school diploma. In many cases they lack the high school education due to dropping out in order to have their children with the hopes of "someday" returning. The education they so desire gets put on the back burner . The money is not there to pay for the classes due to life mishaps that occur, preventing them from achieving their g oal of continued education.
There is, however; a light at the end of the motherhood tunnel in the form of scholarships thanks to President Obama. He knows all to well the difficulty a mother faces when her education has been interrupted or even discontinued. His mother put her education on hold for several years before finally earning her Ph.D. President Obama has now made it possible for mothers to begin or continue their education through scholarships designated solely for mothers, in the hopes that it will ease the struggles faced when unable to find employment to sufficiently provide for her family. With the aid of these scholarships hard working mothers have the opportunity to go to college, increase employment options and in time have a mortgage to call their own.
