While I don’t like to admit it, this is my first time on the Dean’s list and to be so highly ranked since High School. I have finally remembered how to work and study.</p> <p></p> <p>Anyway, my academic accomplishment has generated another round of comments from fellow students, calling me crazy for trying to be a law student as a single mama. The most frequent comment though is “I don’t know how you do it, I can barely take care of myself.” Sometimes comparisons are added as to the differences between caring for a child and caring for a dog. My response has faithfully been that I just do it, and that I don’t know of any other way of living.</p> <p></p> <p>I’m not unique: my student mentor was a single mama of two girls and there are many married students with children - infants on up to teens.</p> <p></p> <p>I thought I’d record a few of my thoughts on the special circumstances of having kids while in law school, more for fun and for posterity than anything else. If I remember, I’ll even make it a regular series of posts.</p> <p><a href="http://ms-jd.org/ruminations-law-school-mama">read more</a></p> http://ms-jd.org/ruminations-law-school-mama#comments Other Law School Issues children studying zoo Thu, 7 Feb 2008 10:35:58 -0600 bangalee57 626 at http://ms-jd.org
