How do you help your family financially?

For the sahm that also works, what do you do? And does it require a degree or no?
Been a sahm for 4 years, but my baby is going into school now, so I am ready to get back to work. I still have 2 other kids at home though.

Would i be a bad mom if I let my baby daddy have primary custody?

I have started a new business which requires me to be on the road alot. Since its the summer its easier since my daughter goes to her dad. When school starts I am nervous on how I would actually balance working and being a mom. My daughter and her father relationship is very rocky and I have tried to mend it but it is what it is. Her father lives with his parents but my daughter has her own room and they just bought her a puppy. I don't want her to feel like i abandoned her for my work or hate me for leaving her with them. She constantly ask when she is coming home every time she is with them. I know it will be diffucult if she has to be there full time. I'm really want our lives to get better...

Paid Family Leave

My OB just told me that they start family leave 4 weeks before scheduled delivery and that it’s only 12 weeks. Is this correct? My current job is also 1099 that i started in the summer but i worked w2 within the 12 months so i know i still qualify! I’m already struggling to work 2
months before delivery🫩

What to do? I overspent,not sure what ti do.

I got my UC top up today,I pay rent from it but I had nothing in my cupboards so I bought some food and also some clothes for my daughter(she is suddenly so tall and everything is short) I have overspent and won't have enough for my rent.I get paid form my job on 15th,so I was thinking I could pay some of it now and rest on 15th.I m housing association and I m already on payment plan...should I tell them or wait and pay on 15thz? I m so sick of making these choices,I still have school uniform to pay for...I m always stressed,like non stop,always down to mu last penny.
