In the future I want to use the tools learned in this class to better help my children in school. I want to take a small course to encourage them to succeed in their lives. My daughter wants to be a pediatrician and I will support her and show her that with a little hard work all is possible. I will have better knowledge to help her get scholarships and grants that will help her achieve her goals. She can have a good career in the future and make a good living. I can see her having a nice home and car without having to worry about whether she has enough money for her rent or bills. My son will also go to school and become a firefighter like he wishes to. With patience and hard work anything can be accomplished, he can eat all the chili fries he wants and buy video games that sometimes I can’t buy for him. They will both finish college and have a degree that will give them a good career. After this class I will have enough knowledge to help them achieve this.
