Besides, presuming you are actually raising this child, you don't have the time to commit to a sorority. If you have friends in the chapter, hopefully you can continue attending the occasional event.

I would say you've made your lifelong commitment... to your child... and your desire to be a sorority girl unfortunately went out the window.

Best of luck to you!
You should have left this to the Deltas or members of NPHC sororities to answer since they can answer from experience. There are plenty of women in our organizations with children, both on the undergrad and grad levels. Having a child in undergrad is not "weird" today like it once was many years ago and since our membership is for life and extends beyond college, many active alumnae members (who run these organizations) have children of course and are married. And yes, we do it all. We are extraordinary women. Some women can't hold down a career, household, marriage, school, and be leaders in their communities and in their organizations but we can and do just that. This is what sets us a part.

So if the poster is extraordinary (extra ordinary), she certainly could do it all if extended membership.
