Thank you starshine for all your suggestions, I will look into them. I filed for unemployment and its been about a month already and Im still waiting. I have given my husband several times the choice to get a job or I would leave and he would get out there and find a job and about three months later get laid off again, I think he only did to shut me up. I worked at a prison for three years and out of those three years he worked about a year and a half to two years on and off. I would come home and he would either be a sleep or playing video games with our son. I would drive an hour to and from work monday thru friday and sometimes on saturday for three years straight, I have to come home and do what I had to do at home. Towards the end I couldnt do it anymore and told him he had to either find a job or take care of the house since he was home all day, because I wasn't going to do it anymore. So he went out and found himself another three month job to shut me up again. So now I got laid off due to the state laying off all the medical assistants from the prisons, I get more and more frustrated everyday because Im applying anywhere and everywhere and he is doing nothing to try to get us out of this hole we're in, on the 5th of next month we will owe $1990.00 for two months of rent that we are behind, I dont' know what to do anymore, Im soooo stressed out about our situation already and he still does nothing. Im looking into apt managing now just to see if I can get in and not have to pay rent atleast, but Im considering seriously not taking him with us.

Hello bettyboop6

I don't understand about your husband - he has gotten job offers and did nothing about them??

My dad had it rough growing up in the 20's and orphaned when his mom couldn't care for the 3 kids but he joined the Navy. Later met my mom and it was hard for him to find work and then I was born and my sister born a month premature. My mom's mom came out to help. My mom later told me my dad was ready to walk out and leave her with us two kids. Boy, she got angry and told him ( they didn't have much money) you get your Irish blood going and get a suit and find work. You are not leaving me to raise these two kids on my own. He found work and worked his way up from fixing typwriters to computers for Univac unlike the PC's we use today..

We all need a lesson in reality you get out there and look for work.  My ex when he did not have work never told me till later but he was out everyday looking and taking anything he could to help out. 

Have you filed for unemployment??

The above list food banks and shelter homeless for our state. Call 211 for resources for food and any mental health low cost clinics or free mental health clinics for your daughter. I think for her to have someone to talk to would be good. I am no dr. but not crazy about medication for children and you want to be sure what the side effects are if anyone wants to use them on her to be on the safe side. That is my opinion and good safe one.
