Back-to-School Dilemma

  • Sharebar

It may be summer for other parts of the globe but here, it’ll be school time again in a week! Time has flown by really fast and vacation will soon be over. I have been in other forums and communities and most parents like me have the same back-to-school dilemma – enrollment, books, uniforms, school supplies. We all have to shell out a huge amount of cash to get our kids back in school and it has always been an issue in most families. Some are already availing their payday advance to be able to sustain the needs for school. Others have to find another way – especially for us who are working from home and with incomes that are mostly unpredictable every month.

However, this will be in no way a hindrance for every parent. The desire to get our kids better education, will always surpass our financial problems. I have learned something from this experience though. Being a first time parent with first timers in school, I am planning on getting a small chunk of cash into the bank for both my girls. This way, we will never face this same issue again next year. Saving for next year will surely be worth it.

    Same here. I’m a parent of 3. It’s always been the same dilemma every year. But it’s our responsibility as a parent to provide our children some good education. I guess, just got to find some ways to make it happen.
