about a teen parent who made it.

I also want to point out the degree she earned was in English. So many on this board want to say liberal arts degrees are useless, but this young woman landed a good job a graduation and later started her nonprofit.

 

I don't think college is the answer for everyone or every teen parent, but if college is the right place for someone I don't think it's helpful to limit degree choices. In fact doing so could severely effect good outcomes. A person who chooses a course of study that matches their strengths will more likely be able to capitalize on it.
