You do make sense!!

BUT there is a third option of doing both!

So-- you take a lower paying job when you are younger and qualify for programs to help you. Go to college on grants and maybe even loans (as an independant you qualify for more-- but dont have to take them).. then when you are done and in the 'job world' you balance that out. If you go right after HS... or are pregnant in College... then your child is still going to be pretty young once you get through it all.

I guess the question I pose there.. is must you give up anything... really? Even without support from parents? I know the college Im trying to transfer to even has dorms for moms with children under 3!

Is it more an issue of laying all these details out in front of you and rather than saying "What do you want to give up?" say "Are you willing to do what it takes?"
