This story shows the importance of keeping hope alive, even when it seems impossible—when the hard work of parenting is compounded by the unfinished business of growing up and making plans for the future. Without judgment, this book lays out helpful guidelines and possible pitfalls that face a young, single woman who cares for her child but refuses to lose her ambition. Money management, relationship issues, funding higher education, and other ways to start fresh without starting over are discussed. By rethinking options, reevaluating plans, and working hard, young mothers can learn to integrate their new families into their plans for themselves, and get back on track to realizing their dreams.

Dreams To Reality: Help For Young Moms, Education, Career And Life Choices by Laura Haskins-Bookser is a highly detailed, in-depth, "reader friendly" guide for singe and/or young mothers. Introducing readers to sage advice and informative, experienced-based strategies for receiving grants and loans, finding colleges with single-parent housing, short-term job training, and handling setbacks, making Dreams To Reality the greatest preparatory companion for all young mothers entering or seeking to remain in college. Dreams To Reality is very strongly recommended for all single-young mothers anticipating but fearing a college level atmosphere of education for its invaluable knowledge and guidance of the coming situation.
This book could definitely prove invaluable to any number of young mothers unsure about their future prospects. With grim statistics looming overhead informing these young women that only 1% of teen mothers will receive a Bachelors by the age of 30, this book is a refreshing and realistically informative book on how a college education is indeed possible, even while running a single parent household. I myself had my daughter in high school and have gone on to live on family housing on a college campus and I find the advice Haskins-Bookser offers right on target with my experience. Highly recommendable.
I JUST LOVED, LOVED THIS. I AM TAKING HER ADVICE IN GOALS AND HE BUDGET PLANS.ETC VERY WELL PUT TOGETHER.LOVED IT
