My mom, 51yro female, has been a stay at home mom all her life depending on my dad for money. She’s been hating him for decades but chose to stay with him because what can a single woman that sucks at English with no professional skills or experience do..? But now she is fed up and my dad is giving her hints to start working real jobs because he is “getting old and is worried about her if something were to happen” to him(I call that bs, he’s just tired of supporting the family)
My mom wants to find a job too, but all she can really do right now is some poorly paid cleaning job or working at some asian stores. Not even anything like McDonalds because she struggles with English.
We live in Alberta, Canada. Are there any programs(that doesn’t cost much, we’re kinda broke) or just any tips overall that might help her get an idea where to start on? I believe she did graduate high school but did not go to university or anything like that
