It is NEVER too late to educate yourself. Regardless of what we do, time passes. If you use the excuse, and that's what it is an excuse, to say you are "too old" or too whatever, it will never happen. I went back to school at the age of 38 to get my legal secretary certification. Then when I was 48 I went back to school AGAIN to get my paralegal certification - that one took me almost 4 years!! And that was when I was also working fulltime. So don't give me the crap and all the boo-hoos about putting her life on hold while waiting for someone else. That's just feeling sorry for herself.
The best thing you can do is support her ideas in anyway you can. Tell her you are behind her all the way if that is what she wants to do and you will help her to achieve her goals
That is what my H did for me and I will never forget it. When I thought I was being silly to even think of going back to school after graduating some 22 years earlier, he was the one that gave me the push and encouragement to move forward and I can't thank him enough for just being there for me.
I am now a sessional instructor at the college, teaching the same program I feared taking some 16 years ago - tell that to your wife!!
