Wow I’m sorry he wasn’t there to support you. And congratulations on your accomplishments!
At the end of the day, it’s what you want to do. I didn’t go to my second graduation because I’d already done it once and I really don’t like the fuss and unnecessary expense. If you want to go, go. If you think you would regret not doing it, then do it.
Agree with the others-what do YOU want? And then do it. But the post makes me wonder alit of things... Your husband can't be bothered to go? He doesn't want to or he can't (work commitments) because those are very different. Did he not see you working hard to get this or did he not support you getting it in the first place? And then for curiousity... Are you degrees progressively higher or are they different subjects?
You 100% need to go to prosper I the fruit of the fields you’ve worked through all that adversity ! And your partner needs to be there as well. Period.
Your partner should be encouraging you to go in my opinion and supporting you to get there with him and your daughter in the crowd! If you feel like you want to go (assuming you do as you made this post) then absolutely go. Tell your partner and family how much it means to you and how hard you have worked for it if they can't see it. Be proud of yourself always
Do what you want but girl, every degree you do is a huge achievement. You deserve to be celebrated, congratulations 👏
I’d absolutely be going!! It’s fair that your parents aren’t going.. but your partner (+ daughter!) should be your biggest fan, and there to celebrate with you. 🩷 congratulations on your academic achievements!!
