Childhood and youth studies

Should I study full or part time for childhood and youth studies? Might work part time as well. Would be doing this through the open university and have a child

My youngest daughter has 5 children and is doing Law on the OU full time. She doesn’t work though as her husband is a high earner and she has a lot of family support.

Is she doing 120 credits? How does she find it? Stressful or does she feel she can cope. Thanks

Hi, yes, the 120 credits. She does find it stressful - not in terms of academic stuff, but only in terms of the children, 3 of whom are autistic. She copes well with the course content.
