Whats your greatest achievement?

[Guest]

dont u need a lot of money to go uni

 

forgive me for not pursuing it but i dont think moving to live on a uni campus is right for a child and that is why i didnt carry on and go uni and do the councilling course

im sure u need shit loads of money and lack of time to work aswell as study with a child and as far as im aware most students have to work cos its so dam expensive at uni

[Miss Minx]

theres funding you can get and you dont have to live on campus

 

you can also do lots of degrees as evening courses at various colleges now which also offer childcare assistance

1. You can get help with the costs

 

2. You don't have to live on campus, you can do it living at home if you find a uni near to you especially.

 

3. There is childcare available or help with the cost of childcare if no creche available on campus.

 

4. You can do part time courses i'm sure.

 

5. You could work part time while doing uni instead of full time just to keep some money coming in and so you don't overwork yourself.

 

6. You could look into the open university where you can learn from home in your own time, this also has funding available.

 

 

If you just stopped being so negative and always looking for the excuse before actually looking into things more, or taking peoples ideas onboard then you might find you get further in life. Its only you holding yourself back with that negative attitude, you could do ANYTHING you want to do, if you apply yourself and don't be so negative about everything as that will get you nowhere.

Some colleges do offer these courses, a lot of colleges are actually starting to offer more than just run of the mill courses. Like the one i am going to, offering specialist IT courses that i wouldn't get anywhere else other than specialist places who charge a load. I'm getting it free.

 

What do you actually want to do Dani? One minute you're talking about hairdressing, the next about IT, now about councilling but always with an excuse as to why you can't do it.. you need to get an absolute direction in your life, then to focus on it, and then move heaven and hell to get it. It's not going to come to you on a plate and say 'hello here i am', it takes work and you need to make compromises in other areas if your life if need be.

 

If you want a good life for you and shay by having a good career then only you can make it happen.

sorry dani but you speak some crap sometimes (im getting annoyed now ) since when can you not do degree's at a univerity or college? i have just done a google search of councilling degrees in england and have come up with over 41,000 links! this just goes to show how much you have actually looked into it.

 

when i got my child pshycology, CIP, CCP, Day care & all the health & safety/first aid etc, i was in part time employment earning minimum wage, bringing up 2 kids alone so i got goverment funding & free childcare should i need it (which i didnt as thankfully if fell in school time & my tutor worked around me, which they will do aswel)

 

oooo & by the way just because you cant get on a hairdressers course does not mean that you cant do anything else with your life, its my life dream to be a midwife but iv never acheived that (yet) but iv always had at least 1 job at any one time to pay my way in life, this time last year i had 3 jobs at once & you know what? i was proud, yes 2 were crappy bar jobs but the gratification of buying my kids stuff out of my earnt money, not club books or borrowing money was amazing

 

as some of you know 5 years ago i was declared bankrupt (thanks to my shit head xhusband).....i had nothing but the clothes i was wearing & the kids cots (and the dog ), i had no home, money, toys, furniture, iv learnt to value money & not take it for granted, i was so ashamed.........which is why i fought like hell to get where i am today, not for me, but for my kids to finally be proud of me, after all they learn through what they see at home & to be honest if you carry on making excuses for every day things then shay will do the same, it will start with "i cant go school today cus......" & lead on from there & it will spiral out of control, i know iv seen it all to often around here.

 

Your so quick to say "i cant do this cus of shay" or "i cant afford hairdressing equipment" but you have to prioritise, you always seem to be able to go clubbing every 3-4 weeks, go on dates, have a few beers........ dont go clubbing, sell your tidy ticket, put the money to good use, we all have to go without sometime in our life.

 

id love to be able to make excuses not to do stuff in life but if i dont do it, nobody else's gonna do it for me!

How the hell you got them with your attitude is beyond me ... The first part of councilling is you have to do a course in LISTENING SKILLS

 

All this you can't is more you don't want ... my friend has just gained a place in uni through hard part time grafting and is the mother of 2 small young children, she is doing a 3 year course rather than the 2 so she has time for her children and herself.

[Louise]

just out of interest what type of councilling have you done? i can look through all my paperwork to see what info i can find.

 

 

what is the actual qualification called?

[Miss Minx]

I havent looked into it any further but i can assure you that at Walsall college you can do your degree in councelling HNC & HND as ive looked into it when it was something i was considering, you can also do it as a part time course to work around childcare and even in an evening. If they do it i cant see them being the only one in the country

 

I think your full of shit of Dani, i strongly doubt youve passed any councelling course and if you have i certainly wouldnt pay for your services as you cant even sort your own life out let alone councell anyone else.
