I completely understand you're in a tough situation not only with your mum but with work, kids and a roof over your head too.

I meant no judgement - just trying to see the scope of the problem

can the rest of you family help out with this in anyway Naz?

Hi Naz,

Not sure what your hours are but lots of school districts offer free care if you qualify financially, there are many 6-6 programs through the school district. If your kids are younger, preschool programs like Head Start might be an option.

I know how tricky it can be to juggle work and kids, but maybe you can investigate some options for care until your mom gets the help she needs.

Hi Naz88,

Maybe writing it all down in a letter and giving it to her in sober times. I find writing stuff down does help a lot.

Naz, I hope that you can find some way to get your children out of the situation with your mother. This may seem like the best option now financially, but you will pay the price later.

Are there any resources within the mental health field where you work that might offer assistance to you?
