Hi all...!!
How are you today..? Today I will tell you a little about what happened in my area, I often hear statements like this, but I don't know if this also happens in your country.
"Just poor, stupid."
"What do high schools get? Just paper, not money."
"Whatever you want, all your possessions are used up for school."
It is not easy for families with a mediocre economy to send their children to college. It's already hard to cover the costs, and you're still burdened by the negative talk of neighbors or relatives.
If that's the case, this family must be stronger in extending patience. Because it is not impossible, if we encounter a disaster along the way, we will be shouted at, we will complain more or less, and when we ask for help, we will only be given a lecture, not a solution.
My family has been in that position. Sending girls to college. At that time not many people in my village did it. It's natural that my parents' actions were considered excessive. And they expected too much from my graduation.
Not a few of my extended family are of the view that the higher the school, the greater the income they must earn. It was such a heavy burden to carry on my shoulders just because of high school. Meanwhile, regarding people's sustenance, hasn't it been absolutely determined by God, the Almighty Giver? Humans only have to try, who can predict the results?
I once read someone's status on Meta, which was something like this,
Well, right, girl. Even if you want to go to high school, the place is still at home." That's the comment of conventional people who always put women in domestic affairs. In fact, they don't know that highly educated mothers are an important asset in raising their children. In fact, it cannot be denied that education can save someone from problems that people who do not have an education may not be able to solve. So,
