Support a new to be single Hardworking Mother and Her Teens
Donation protected
- I'm a 43-year-old mother that works full-time as a Medical Assistant with Erlanger. I have 3 teenagers; a boy & 2 girls. I have basically been a single mother as I haven't had help off & on for the past 12 yrs but especially the past 8 mo. I feel it's teaching my kids (especially my girls) that's it's ok to take care of a man, which is not what they need to learn. We are about to lose the house, so I have to sell it before it goes into foreclosure. I plan to move in with my parents until I can afford my own place, I do get some government support but it doesn't last very long with 3 teens. I'm getting as much help as I can but it doesn't help with other important needs. I only bring home $400-500 every 2 weeks mostly due to my car payment & insurance that are automatically deducted from my checks. I have family that help, even they can only do so much. I'm on medication, plus the kids have after school activities, need for clothes & supplies, etc... My son is being homeschooled and both my girls are in middle school. The place they will be bullied if they don't have some of the same things as everyone else. I've gotten help from my parents & their dad's mom. The school is helping with their supplies & trying to help with anything they can. But there are so many things you don't think of, I need help with, such as having gas money to get to work, having money to get my vehicle's routine maintenance, we need to have money for things like toilet paper, shampoo, conditioner, razors, laundry detergent, ect... the kids need money for volleyball & choir especially since kenzi was chosen for advanced choir this year & this being Kenzi's last year in Middle School, there are constantly things coming up that she needs. Shyann's birthday is on August 30th & she won't get much from her parents... I will have to lean more on the kids grandparents to help with her birthday, Kenzi's birthday in November & most of all, Christmas. I know with Christmas just around the corner, and I still owed my son for last Christmas and his birthday.I know their are other families that have problems just as I do. Im just hoping there are good people out there willing to give any amount they could spare. Even just $1.00 from 100 ppl is helpful to me. Nobody has to help but anyone that could I would be forever grateful. I'm embarrassed to ask for help but I have to push my feelings aside & do what I need to do for my kids.I don't know how to ask & hate even asking for help, but here I am asking. I'm basically on my knees begging God to help work through others to get what we need. I am 100% grateful for my 2 donations that went to keeping my lights on here for now. I wasn't sure until recently we what I needed help with mostly. A few things I really need & hope to use donations to help me buy 3 (maybe) 4 twin beds with drawers & storage under them as when we move to my parents house the girls will have to share a room so there won't be much more room for dressers or their desks/vanity's that they just got for last Christmas. I was kinda hoping maybe I could get them a room divider maybe. I will be sharing a room with my son. He has a brand new full bed & mattress that he loves. It doesn't really look as big as a full so I hope I can get a twin bed for myself. We have a 1 yr old pug that needs to be fixed desperately not only that she needs a vet check up, She has fleas that I'm trying to get the good stuff to keep them off of her plus just a general groom & nails cut. She is going to need something to help with anxiety as well. When we took a week vacation to my grandmother's house, when we came back, she had bald spots that have finally filled back in from her anxiety. But these are just some of the things we need for us to get moved out.
- I don't hate their dad, it's just time. He is not giving me or the kids stability & hasn't for a while. It's just time to move on & show my girls, that's not the kind of husband they would want for their futures. I appreciate the money here & there but I need this money ASAP so I can move out soon.
- I have tried to be a good person my whole life & a separation wasn't what I ever planned but I have to do what's best for our family.
- Please help me if you can so we can sell this house before it forecloses & makes my credit worse than it already is. I can't get a new home renting or buying without having good credit. I eventually want a place to ourself but if I have to lean on my parents....Again.
- It is what it is & I thank you again to my 2 supporters. I Pleased thank you for reading this & beg you to share this with everyone you know that can help. I have to start having more coming in to get what's needed for my kids & me to get moved out ASAP. Thanks in Advance
