I am a single mother of twins and i need help!

I love my babies with all my heart but i dont know if i can continue to raise them on my own. Sometimes i feel very overwhelmed by all that im doing now. I want to be able to have my own home but cant find a good paying job. Im only 21 and i wanted to go to school for broadcasting. I wanted to know if there are any programs out there that i dont know about, that offer temporary adoptions or financial assistance for housing, because everywhere i look there is a waiting list thats like 3-5 years long or there not accepting applications. I cried one day because i told social services that i didnt have anywhere to go.. and all they told me was im sorry theres nothing we can do for you. I asked God why cant i find help.. why does it hurt so bad… why cant i just catch a break. Im not looking for any hand outs i just need help, so if you can help lead me in the right direction please let me know something…

Find out of there is a social services group called CASA in your area. They provide day care help very reasonable according to your income. Apply for welfare, food stamps, sign your children up for every free mothers day out offered by local churches. If you really want to give your children up you should start calling orphanages or if you know or have a Mason in your family you might be able to get them in a Masonic orphanage. Or see if someone in your family will take them until you can get on your feet. If you know who the father of these children is find out where he works and turn him into the Attorney General for your state as a deat beat dad and get them to garnish his wages to make him give you money for supporting his kids. If I think of any other ideas I will post to you again. Hope one of these ideas helps.
Hugs

Dear tired mother, please contact a reputable bible teaching church and share your need. I live in Kansas and would gladly help but assume you are probably not close by. I am a stay home mom and will say prayers for you and your sweet babies. Email if you would like. Angee

I just delivered twins and have a seven yr old and am single. I went back to work after one week of delivering I need the money. I ask God why ask me to bring them into the wold with no means of providing for them. I am 37 yrs old and feel as if I have lost my life. I want you to know that you are not alone. Don’t give them up. Check with large local churches they tend to have outreach programs to help ubtil we are back on our feet. I will try to check back to this site, we can support one another and offer encouragement. Hold on. Also try going to temp agencies for work until you can go to broadcast school. Even I know deep down God is making a better wat for us we just have to trust Him and find the joy in our present situation. I love you and God Bless.

Hi

I hope you are feeling better. I am not a mom yet. But it sounds like you are overhwelmed. Apply for food stamps or welfare if you have to. There is no shame in that. Look into adoption/foster care services if you just can’t handle it. Go to a church and see if there is outreach. Pray. Think of how you can CREATE the life you want. Write down everything. Write down what you want and need and figure out a path to clarity. What about your family? Mom? Dad? Sis? Brother? Uncles? anybody? An old teacher? Anyone? There’s got to be a couple of people you can scramble together that can assist from time to time. Sit in the park when the weather is good with the babies, look at the blue sky and try to meditate on a better life. Avoid all drugs and alchohol at this time. Spend your days praying, even when you are walking down the street, pray. Find something to laugh about about the situation. NO matter how bad it is, look in the mirror and smile. Make yourself smile. See the humor even in tragedies, and you will find that slowly you begin to see light. Slowly. One step at a time. One step at a time. Do one little thing each day off the list you wrote towards CHANGING your life. Whatever you do, don’t give up. Don’t hurt yourself. Don’t hurt the girls. They could one day grow up to be movie stars, doctors, whatever. And you can still have all you want with discipline, courage, faith, and fortitude. One step, one day at a time.

There is a place call 4c’s they provide help with daycare payment for kids with mom in need. they are in santa rosa california. but if you live elsewhere you could contact them at 707-526-6901. don’t give up is hard raising a kid. I am 22 have a seven month old, I have a full time job, have a baby and am going to school. I don’t have any aid so its hard for me as well but im doing it with love & Faith. It will help you thru and be strong for those kids. APply for wic they can help you with your kids formula or food.
