Going back to school is tough on its own. Going back to school as a parent is even tougher. And going back to school as a single parent, well, I can only imagine the kind of patience and determination it takes to get that done.
Single Mom Shuts Down Professor Who Tells Her To Step Out Of Class With Her Toddler
#1
For some, they have family and friends who will help look after their kid while they sneak away to class for a few hours or so, but not everyone's afforded that luxury, neither can anyone actually afford (or trust) a babysitter to properly take care of their kid.
#2
So you bring your kid to class, sure, the idea of it can be a little uncomfortable at first, but there are some professors who are more than happy you brought your child to an educational environment. Exhibit A:
#3 But this single mom, unfortunately didn't have such an understanding instructor.
Jazz Jamal had to bring her daughter with her to class. Her little girl was so excited at all the smiling faces and attention, that she started saying "hi" to everyone, but eventually calmed down.
#4 Jazz's professor, worried that her daughter would disrupt class, asked Jazz to step outside and only come back when she could have a child care situation lined up.
#5 And that's when she unloaded a most epic and righteous comeback that shut him down for good.
It reads:
My professor tried to tell me to leave the class today ... Because my queen was very excited the first few min of the class she was very happy and constantly saying hi etc however I manage to calm her down , he ask me to step out the class and when that happened he suggested I come back once child care was situated ...
1.My response to him was if he pay for her to go to day care I'll come back with out her .
2. If he move me out the country brought me land and spoiled us rotten etc etc buy her some horses and everything she want I won't return to the class.
3. If he take care of us hand in foot .
4.if he pays for my classes , because I paid out of pocket .
5. If he give me an A for the semester then I will leave and not return
HE THEN LOOKED AT ME LIKE I WAS CRAZY , and told me I'm happy you could join us all baby girl and to have a seat .....
I will never allow the fact that I have a beautiful baby interfere with my degree . I refuse for that to stop me from being successful .... I do this shit by my self and to make sure she good I will go trough what ever .... Leaving was not an option for me ...a baby won't hold me back FOH
#6 It looks like she has her Mommy's same love for learning, too.
That's what I call setting a good example.
