Moved out of my BD in march, been staying with mom n sister since then. It's myself and my 3 kids. Sister works from home, mom works 2 days out the week from home too. I work nights. We sleep in the living on an air mattress. I know it's cramped. I know my kids are a lot. Just got told my kids can't stay here for the summer. I know I'm a burden on my family. I try n stay out. So my kids don't get on their nerves and give my mom n sis their space but still I feel it. I feel that my kids and I aren't wanted here. And to top it off when they said my kids couldn't stay here they said it front of my kids. The kids don't understand that my mom and sister aren't used to having kids around and wanting their attention. Its so heartbreaking to see my kids want to have conversations with them and show them things they learned and them not wanting to hear them bc they're too much. Ive been looking for an apartment for us but it's been so hard. With the majority of the places wanting you to make 3x the rent which I don't and the ones that don't are in sketchy neighborhoods. I feel so alone have no one to talk to.

I’m so sorry, I can’t imagine the stress that puts you in. I feel the same with my kids and my mom and sister, although they put a supportive face on anyway. But I know it deep down lol, I’m blessed to have my own apartment but I’m so sorry for your situation. I hope all things considered you’re free of your BD and it’s better 🙏🏽

get on Facebook and look into renting a room from a home. some are affordable (cheaper than apartments). im truly sorry this is happening 💔 your village isnt always family, tbh. a village consists of people who want to HELP you, not throw you and your kids out. youre trying your hardest ❣️ DEMAND financial gain from the BD tf it doesn't take 1 person to make a baby. he needs to step up!! obviously dont ask for a ridiculous amount but ask him to at least pay/link his card to the apartment OR a House room rent.
