School and kids

I'm 21 years old and pregnant with my 2nd baby. I plan to go back to school in the fall but I'm not sure if I should stick to my original plan. B4 I had kids I wanted to go for accounting which would take me 4 years(if I go full time no breaks) to complete but now since I have kids I'm wondering if I should just go 4 something quick just get a better income sooner. I just don't wanna be one of those moms who keep putting off school and wait till my kids are adults and then decide to go back but I don't wanna be in school 4 the rest of my life working on 1 degree either. Idk how hard it's gonna be with 2 kids and a full time job. Any  moms have similar experiences? Any advice or suggestions?

I think you need to talk to a guidance counselor.  I know becoming a CPA takes a 4 year degree,  and then passing the exam,  but is there an associates degree (2 years) that will allow you to do bookkeeping and manage accounts in a business?
