As long as yo can get the kids proper care while you're in class, I think it makes you an excellent mom. Continuing your education and improving your prospects sets a very good example for them.

I can understand that. I felt the same when I went back to college and had to put little one in nursery. Is not about wanting to get away from your kids, but more like getting the qualifications you need to make sure you can provide your kids with a nice home full of nice things. Nice xmas' and birthdays, as well as a mummy who loves them loads. Lucky kiddie winks. Congratulations on getting accepted into college!!

Hi there you silly cookie of course you dont sound like that hun, going to college is a good thing. You are building a future for you and your family. I wish i could go to college but i cant afford to at the moment. Anyway at colleges these days they have nursery facilities available if you would be able to take them with you, but if you would prefer to go alone then thats fine too, stop worrying what people will bw thinking. You are doing just fine. Good luck xx

No. You're going back to college, where you will hopefully gain some new skills that will allow you to find a good job someday. Being a parent is really tough, so it's good to get out of the house and find other interests to get involved with now and then. So don't worry about it, I'm sure your kids will be proud of you. You're setting a good example for them. :-)

You're not a bad mum. Even though you are a mum, you have a right to do other things with your life! Congratulations on getting accepted for your college course. Good luck for the future!

No, you shouoldn't feel bad. You are just excited about starting a new chapter in your life. And I think the fact that you are even asking says a lot about how important your children are. Its okay to be excited about starting something new

No you are not a bad mum for thinking like this. There are other things in life that you can do after all you are not just a parent you are a person in your own right. As long as your children are cared for and are safe you can do anything you like.

No you're not a bad mum ~ you're a good mum with a healthy attitude!
It's obvious you love your children and you have every right to have some time for yourself and why not spend that time furthering your education? It's better than spending all your "me" time at the pub.
You've every right to be excited, so enjoy it!
Good luck

No you are not a bad mum. You want to do something for yourself that doesn't involve your children and lots of mums feel the same way. Don't feel bad enjoy your course and I hope you do really well
