Basically am 21 applying to uni this year, got a place at my dream uni for an employable degree.
It's in London and the money from student finance (based on mums) income means that shes going to have to use her own wages to support me, even if I had a full time job in london.
She says that her being a big factor in how her kid (me) was able to go to uni would make her proud and is what she wants to do with her money.
But I know she hates her job, and her earning the money to financially support me would mean she needs to do like 30 overtime hours extra a month. She's an A&E nurse and it's physically demanding and she ends up drinking quite a lot after work because her working environment is shocking and she feels totally unfulfilled at work.
Feel like if I take my offer, it forces her to work more overtime (even if I take a P/T job in London) and I feel like I cant cope with the fact my personal choice leads to her spending more time in a working environment she hates.
I feel like if I dont take my offer Im wasting a massive opportunity and pissing on the sacrifices she's already made to get me to where I am.
Dunno what to do :/
Put the internet to work for you.
