Pakistani mother enrolls in first grade

I found this article to be very interesting. It is about a 25 year old woman from Pakistan who is a mother of three and decided she wanted to go to school since she never got the opportunity to. She goes to school with two of her children, who are 4 and 5 years old. She says she really enjoys it, even though she is much older than her fellow classmates. Her husband is one of her biggest supporters since Pakistan is a country where women's education was never really possible, due to cultural limitations.
