You ARE a team and by taking on more just for NOW he’s allowing you the opportunity to get your degree and then things will even out. Just have to view it as a temporary thing. Best of luck!
Cut unnecessary expenses and unnecessary spending
Finish school. Sometimes it’s a 50/50 relationship and sometimes it has to be 80/20.
Keep it pushin… if hes ok with it… just do it and get it done.
Don’t quit school it’s harder to go back! Just keep going you can do it! I’m rooting for you!!!
It may be stressful now, but don’t quit school. Maybe look at donating plasma, do that while you study. It will be worth it in the end.
The faster you get out the faster you can get a better job supporting your family. Head down and run to the finish line.
I can tell you if you drop school it’s hard to get back to. I say keep going to school and doing what you are doing. If anything I would look at your spending and make a concrete budgeting plan so it’s easier on you guys. They really help.
Definitely finish school. It’s hard now, but once you get your degree things will get easier. Til then cut any unnecessary expenses and spending. It’s awesome that he wants you to concentrate on your degree. You’ve got this!
How would quitting school help? You work 2 jobs already. If he’s being encouraging then finish school.
Definitely finish school, stick with it.
Absolutely finish school. He’s going to have to keep the second job and you guys do some budget cuts. School will pay off in the end.
He’s right, you can always earn more money but you’ll never get back the time that you could have put towards school. When you graduate that will be money made working with your degree as opposed to a job now. Glad you have a supportive partner
Look at what you want now on what you want to be. Of course, you want to be a mother, but what is it more that you want? I finished school in other field requirements, but not what I wanted, I am expired in everything I graduated from, all I am left with is being a US Navy Veteran.
Hang in there, finish school. In the future youll be glad you did…
It’s great you have his support,cherish that and know that you are a team working towards a better future.
Stay focused. Finish school.
Don’t quit school maybe work one job do part time school and b there for ur baby it’s stressful but not impossible
I don’t think the weight is on him if you’re working 2 jobs, attending school and have a daughter. Seems fairly split if he’s also working 2 jobs.
Finish school. Hes willing to take on more because in the long run, you’ll both succeed. Also, what an awesome guy. A lot of men would agree that u need to quit so they wont have to do as much which would only make life harder later. Stick with it. The storm will pass
Your partner sounds brilliant
Don’t ever quit on education. It’s not something that can ever be taken away from you. You are also working AND doing school. He can do way more than that and if you guys are going to be together sometime you alternate who takes the hard time and who takes it easy. I’d finish the school so you will be able to contribute when you are done.
He told you. Just do it!
I take my hat off to him. You should be super proud of him. He wants to be the supportive partner. Finish school and get your degree. Everyone goes though a tight stage, my husband and I for one. We cracked on with beans and noodles for months, then snowballed our debt. We aren’t rich, but can comfortably do things now with saving up. But you will sort it out, and he will be super proud tp watch you graduate with your daughter at his side cheering mummy on. Xx
Stay in school. Once you quit & start working full-time it’s so hard to go back. Take it from someone who has been there.
Finish school!!! Will be the best thing u ever done!!!
I honestly think your partner is correct on this one. Mom guilt will never go away
Do not quit. End of story
do what he says if it means you grad sooner and make more money with the degree.
Finish school. Treat him once you have your degree. Many men don’t support their partner fully. He is. Yes yall are gonna fight its the stress of everything.
Your partner sounds amazing! I mean he’s working two jobs as well and wants u to keep going to school! Sounds like a keeper to me!
Sounds like you have a good guy there finish school them you can help
Finishing school will set you up so that you’ll never be in this position again.(probably) school really is so important. If you have two FULL TIME jobs AND going to school AND taking care of your kid then trust me you are 100% helping. You are contributing a lot more than you think you are and then after you graduate and find the job you went to school for you’ll be contributing even more. I’m 32 years old and I work at a part time job… I dropped out of college twice. Granted my husband makes enough money where I don’t even have to work but not everyone is that lucky. If it weren’t for him I’d be so screwed. And then the whole “if it weren’t for him I’d be so screwed” thing gets to you because you realize you as an individual aren’t doing great things in life you’re not making it anywhere… with out depending on this one person I am nothing— type of thinking. You’ll never have that if you get your degree
Finish school and keep working the job that you already have
I commend him on his opinion! He is right, finish school!
Finish school. It’s hard now but the reward will be worth it in the end and you can help out your family by hopefully going to one full time job that has a nice paycheck. Stay strong and stay focused in school.
Finish school and once it’s done then focus on other stuff. Your hubby is good man for not letting u drop school.
Depends on what you’re going to school for. Is it something that you are truly passionate about? Is it a position that absolutely requires school, like a doctor or lawyer?
Unpopular opinion here…. But I personally believe “going to school to get a good job” is a very antiquated way of thinking. I know plenty of people including myself who are successful in life without a formal college education. I actually was going to be an engineer, and dropped out, it wasn’t my passion and I couldn’t justify accruing that kind of debt just to make $100k annually.
Don’t give up school. You’ll end up pushing the struggle today to a struggle tomorrow. Keep pushing through and when you graduate on time it will all be worth it.
Sacrifice now and reap the benefits later. This is paying your dues. Unless you come from a wealthy family, stick to it. I went to school full time and worked weekends. I missed out on my kids for two years. I was a single mom at the time and had a support system that allowed me to finish. Don’t give up! This will set you and your family up for life. The date you are suppose to be done will come quicker than you think. When you feel guilty, put that much more effort into studying. Your husband is sacrificing with you. Don’t quit school!!
Hes cool with you being in school, finish school. Dont quit. You’ll graduate and be happy you listened.
Finish school. Best thing you could ever do for all of you. Stay focused and do it now.
Biggest regret I have is not putting more effort in finishing school. I always put that kind of stuff last. If he’s that supportive I say don’t drop it.
Finish School. Later you can help!
Finish school. You are in, and taking time off makes excuses for not going back easier. Resentment will surface down the line
Finish school, he’s got this:heart:
Honey a man like him is determined to take care of you and if he is telling you to stay in school PLEASE!!! Stay in school PLEASE!!!
what you should do is finish school. Do you realize how lucky you are? You have a man that wants
you to finish your dream, so do it
Finish school glad he is there to support your dreams
don’t quit doing school !!!
Buck up cowgirl everyone has problems want to trade wuth me?
He may be looking at it as y’all already put this much time and money into your schooling, so why quit now.
He’s willing and wants this for you, keep communicating buckle down get it done , you got this! If you stop now life will get in the way. My daughter quit sadly she never finished, you got this.
So you work 80 hours a week go to school and have a kid. How is that possible. There is only so many hours in a day
Ummm… definitely finish school or two years from now when you would have been done you will be angry at yourself for quitting. He is trying to support your dreams. Enjoy that.
You have an amazing person behind you and next to you so much love for this
Please don’t quit school you have an amazing man supporting you to finish most don’t have that. So make him proud and don’t drop out.
Stay in school and get that degree. Road blocks happen and if he’s pushing you to finish he has your back. You stop now you’ll always have an excuse to not go back. Consider yourself lucky because you are regardless of the situation he’s pushing you to get a degree. Not many men out there who will support you and push you that way.
I’m confused as to how the weight is on him yet you have two jobs on top of taking care of your daughter and going to school? Stay in school especially if hubby is all for it
Stay in school your blessed to have a man like that
Finish school. Your husband got your back
Finish school. It will be ao worth it.
You have the support. Take it. A lot don’t.
I would sit down and talk to him though and come up with a plan for when he feels like it’s too much and what to do at that point. Like how new parents do for sleep deprivation during the first few months? Kinda like that.
Knowledge is power and never a waste
Finish school he’s upset because you guys have trudged this path together and he has had your back this far and he doesn’t want you to quit because times are hard hard times will always come &go.
take his word for it because he obviously means it and finish school because the sooner you finish school the sooner that education can help you upgrade your family to the better life u guys are already working towards.
It is so hard to go back. Just finish it. Take minimum classes for financial aid if you get it, but keep going. Good luck
DONT QUIT
Times always are tough. You have a supporting man and he is gonna do what he needs for you and your child. Your education is important to making bigger changes in your life. Keep going.
You absolutely positively have to go finish your degree. He is willing to work more so you can finish. It’s not easy but you’ll get it all accomplished.
do not drop out. It’s his role to support you through this.
Finish school in the long run this will help u all financially x
Definitely stay in school. I know it’s hard I have six children… I babysat during the day and worked nights. I didn’t want to put my children in daycare and wanted them to go to private school and college. 5 out of 6 went to college. The 6th went to trade school. My point is as Mom’s we are resilient we set goals and make it happen. Stick to your goals… it will be worth it All later.
Just finish it… things won’t magically be solved because you quit, it’ll just add to long term issues and statistically you’d probably not go back…
Hang in there, finish up, and male us all proud
Finishing school will help you in the long run. If he’s willing to pick up the slack for now let him. You can return the favor later on when something comes up.
Listen to your partner. Tempting as it is to give up school and earn extra in hard times hes talking sense. Hard times pass and you’ll earn so much more when you get your degree…hes supporting you …let him
Why you on school at 24 I’m confused
Finish school. A marriage is about helping each other out. Sometimes roles change in a marriage and that’s okay. When my husband and I first got married, he was the breadwinner by far. Well Covid happened and he was laid off. We lost our insurance and a really good salary. I was a hairstylist with no benefits. I decided I needed to leave that career to help my family out so I found something different and that has great benefits. My husband decided to take on a contract role so no benefits. It works for us.
Stay in school - tough it out. You will be glad later on, Good luck, Sweetie
So, I know I’m not a mom, but I always see these posts because my wife responds.
I quit school when I was in my 20s to focus on work so that I could take care of my daughter. If I could go back and give myself a piece of advice, it would be to finish school.
I am 37 now. I am about to graduate. I wish I would have done this 12 years ago.
Life never stops coming. It doesn’t take a break. School is going to be hard whenever you go. Finish now. Don’t put it off as I did.
Good luck with your family. The only way out of a hard life is hard work.
Stay in school and find a way to cut down on costs. FOR EXAMPLE, budget better. Make a meal plan and stick to it. No eating out, no buying coffee while you are out. Don’t upgrade your phone every 1-2 years. Make it last 4 years. Use city transit instead of paying for insurance and fuel.
Make a budget for absolutely everything and stick to it.
Finish school. If you’ve got his support and cheering you on especially, do not drop out.
How he came across probably sounded mean or full of anger. I bet that wasn’t the intention. Shit happens girl, life sucks at times. Sounds like you guys are trying your best to come out ahead. Stay with your school. It’s just as important as his jobs and yours. You both have a lot on your plate it seems. Stay in school, work your jobs, be a mom and wife. Keep going. You both got this.
Do not quit school. Push through
Sounds like love, finish school. Everything will fall into place. Everyone has these times. Yall will come through it. He’s mad because you’ve already put in so much time and money into it. Keep going and finish. This too shall pass
He’s right but you’re working 2 full time jobs and he has two and y’all still struggle ? What state are y’all in ??
Don’t drop out, it’s extremely hard to just “go back” youll start depending on the extra money and it will be challenging to return to school. Keep at it, he is sacrificing now to better the family, look at it that way. Times are tough around all aspects of life right now, don’t give up school, get your degree as planned just make adjustments as a family, it will be worth it. Good luck momma!
Imo Only drop out if you no longer want that career path. Finishing school sooner means better pay sooner. Budget better to make ends meet. Utilize the food pantry. Cut out things you can’t afford that aren’t required for work ( obviously if you work from home don’t cut internet), cut TV services, stuff like that.
Sounds like you got a great man on your plate their.
He’s right. Finish school. You’ll be making better money with your degree. You’ll just have to struggle a little. Sit down and make a budget that you know you can both stick with.
Stay in school go as much as you can.
Finish school - It will be worth it in the end. He sounds like a really neat man - he wants you to finish school and that is good.
You were going to school full time, already working 2 jobs, plus taking care of the kid. He finally gets a second job and you think there’s too much on him? I literally REQUIRE this to be satire
That’s awesome that he is so supportive of you and your education
Anything worth having is never easy to achieve. I know it’ll be hard and stressful for you guys for awhile but in the end it’ll pay off. Just gotta take it day by day and stick with it!
It’s hard rn but don’t quit school. You need to do it if you’re anything like me you would never go back. If I didn’t go and finish when I did I never would have went or had the motivation to go back. You gotta do what you gotta do in hard times to get to the easy times.
Finish school, I was going to go back and finish that was in 1996 I only needed a couple classes but now the program has changed and I would have to start over. The best way to fix issues is to sit down talk about it. Since you are being vague about the issues if they are financial then you need to figure out a budget set an allowed amount for groceries, if you have several streaming services like Netflix pick one cancell cable, shop for cheaper cellular service. But since you were vague I can’t give a better answer.
He’s taking one for the team. If he insists, do it
Finish school…you guys won’t struggle forever…hes supporting you that’s awesome
He is right! The closer you are to finishing school will be the best way to help him in the long run!
He is thinking of your future… Sometimes you have to struggle and make sacrifices for the ones we love. Long term, your degree will eliminate him having to work so hard and will provide more time for you all to be together as a family. Finish school! Give him some extra love for being so supportive
