When you became a mom, you did not stop being a college graduate. There have probably been times as you moved from the professional world into the role of full time mom that you thought about all the skills that you learned in college and if you would ever use those skills again. That desire to use what those years in school taught you is a good lead on an outstanding market you can tap for an excellent work at home opportunity. That is the market if students who need help with the research, writing or typing of their term papers.

For many students, writing is one of the hardest things they have to learn. In a way, by offering your services to college students who have money but not the skill, talent or time to write is a way for you to be part of the college experience again. Now, there are ethical issues to keep in mind. As a mom, you don′t want to send a message to your children that its ok to pay someone else to do your work. If a student contacts you to write a term paper for them, its unethical for you to all of the work and for that student to represent that paper to his or her instructors as original work. But as long as you are assisting in the process and not taking away from the original work the student must do, you can stay in ethical territory and be of help to a struggling student.
