subject: Why The Obama Is Giving Scholarship For Poor Mothers? [print this page] What comes to your mind when you hear the words "scholarship for moms"? Maybe you would wonder why it is being offered for moms to think that there are several young students needing scholarships to finish their studies. Well, the government has sensible reasons for it and it boils down to one thing, helping poor moms with their families live in a healthier way.
We cannot get away with poverty and it holds true to almost all the countries around the world. There are few privileged people enjoying many blessing in this life while there are many who are struggling to make ends meet. Education is one of the many things we should be grateful if we have the opportunity to get hold of it. Through education, you can realize your dreams and have what you desire in life with hard work of course.
With studies and statistics, it shows that young women, who cannot afford to pay for college, choose to have their own family at a young age after completing high school. They probably think that they will go nowhere anyway. Moms who weren't able to finish their studies are mostly living below average with their families and the number of these cases is constantly increasing that is why the government thought that they should do something about it.
President Obama and his administration that by sending moms to college and helping them earn a degree, it would be a great initial step to help them get them out of poverty. How? Most better and high paying jobs require formal training or education as the main qualification. Employers perceives that hiring someone who has earned a degree would be more beneficial to them since they have the proper training and they were educated accordingly. Having an education will qualify you to more opportunities.
Unlike if you are not able to finish your education, and aside from staying at home to take care of your kids and chores at home, there may be a need for you to work to earn some income for your family especially if your partner's salary is not enough. You do not have a choice but you will be forced to work in some low paying job with stressful working condition and sometimes with unfair benefits. Situations are really far different if you hold a college degree.
The main purpose why Obama is urging moms to go back to school is for their own good and to have a much better life than what they actually have at the moment.
