Do you have to study and get degree to be a good example for your children?

@Johanna I think she is jealous...I was very handy for her before I met my partner...always available for her...when I was pregnant, she cried once that I will forget her because now I have family... It was my dream to have a family...I think she just thought I will stay singed forever
That is a most insensitive thing to say. A degree or status of study does not mean you are any less intelligent or capable, it also doesn’t imply you’re not a role model for your children, it’s a matter of opinion but I believe there’s nothing more important than raising little people and there’s So many studies that support parent’s presence at home benefit child development significantly more. You can always return to study later if you’d like to. You’re doing great and don’t let anyone dictate what you should or shouldn’t do 💗💗💗
That was a silly comment for her to make. It could just be jealousy. Definitely keep your distance feom people like that.
@Madeline I agree with you...is so gross of her...she only thinks she has a right to teach people how they should live their life, and does not see rudness of her comments...but no one can say anything to her, she is super sensitive
Your children just needs you to be a good person . Although I have my degrees but I rather be around a good and kind person than one with multiple degrees . Avoid such friend if she makes you feel uncomfortable
My mom has a masters degree and my dad doesn’t have any. I ended up having 2 degrees. Both my parents are amazing. And my dad played the most crucial role in my life. He was always my biggest role model, my educator, my pride and my supporter. It never even crossed my mind to think if he has a degree or not. He is the best father I could ever wished for, for so many reasons.
A degree, or degrees will not make you a role model for your children. Loving them, being there for them and being an example of kindness is what makes you a good example for them. No need for your friend to make such comments and your don't need that type of energy. Enjoy motherhood awusy from toxicity. On a different note, why do some women have to be so judgemental towards other women, especially their friends, like in your example? Its disheartening
My parents never had degrees or anything and they were/are great role models for me. Had a wonderful upbringing and life. I think my dad left school when he was 14!! I never went to uni, and while I have since studied - it was the right time, right place at my current workplace) I never felt the need to, same with my husband. We would rather work, earn money and have a nice life with each other than go get a degree in something we aren’t committed to, getting in debt and probably not even using said degree. You don’t need their negativity in your life. Either tell them to quit banging on about it or cut them out!
She sounds like an idiot . You don’t have to degree to be a good example to your children . Tell her your focusing on other things
Ladies thank you so much for your comments ❤️ I know she is toxic , she kind of drank my energy, was trying to put me down in many ways...she had jealousy towards me, as I always attracted people and could easy make friends because of my personality. I don't have degree but I was surrounded by people who had a degree and achieved something in life...it was never a question if I have a degree...I was a good listener and I have a lot of empathy towards people I don't feel like going to uni, because I just lost interest since I have children...everything has its own time for everyone....I studied well , and dreamed about being a nurse but my health problems turned my dream down...now I have family life and all my focus on them xx
I’d block her, she sounds toxic and jealous. Sometimes when people talk it says more about them then it does about you.
