Hi, 

In response to your post I have  a son who is mentally disabled so I know what your going through,  but mostly at the end of your post you mentioned the government turning a blind eye to families in need.  Also on this site a noticed some negative responses telling people they shouldn't have children if they can't afford them.  Well in response to that who knew we were going to war and gasoline would go up 21/2 dollars since then!  Who knew that food would become so outrageous to buy since Katrina,  and who knew that the drug epidemic would take over the USA and leave everyone else broke and  or in submissive debt, kill our family members to where we all have to spend at least a 1/3 of our income burying members of our families way to early in our lives?  Who knew that credit card and mortgage lenders would basically "FRONT" everything and then take it all away?  Whomever post comments like these is a complete idiot, uneducated and just plain blind and uncaring about what is going on in the world especially here in the USA!!  It is all our responsibility to take care of the children.  It is not for you or the government to make it impossible to get food without FIRST being HUMILIATED especially after all the taxes we paid over the yrs and all the lenders made off us.  How pathetic for the gov not to care or help.  And then take it to the point of embarressing you when you need help.  What kind of people are these?  What kind of country is this? 

tabbylin cat I pray for you and I hope your situation gets much better in future because even if people are disabled in any way  deserve a normal happy life just as much as the lawyer down the road whom does not have any problems finacially. 

Hello sheri,

   We were away from the pc but we received your message.  First we would like to say we can't believe how someone in your situation thought to even comment back much less offer our family clothing.  God bless you!  And yes we would love the clothing and if your church cannot ship the items then maybe we could pay for the shipping?  How much do you think that is.?  Were suppose to receive an income tax return some time within a few weeks  (most would go towards bills but we would love to send you something for your kindness as soon as we receive it.  We have 3 girls and two boys.  Our eldest daughter is 18 and expecting soon and goes to college part time right now so any baby items are needed as well.  The ages are as follows     18, 17, 16, 14, 11  sizes 8to10 are perfect.  I do not know about the sz0 however could an 11 yr old where this?  She is really tall for her age and can wear a size 7 or 8 in teen clothing.   I should have said any thing that can be sent used or not is great with us.  I suppose even food as long as it is still in date.  THat is a great idea.  Thank you for your reply                     We will pray for you and your daughter as well.                Texfamily  

Hello

My family is in serious need of help.  We pay all our bills but it is difficult to get food, clothing for our children.  I can honestly say that no matter what we do we never can get enough food. Welfare says we make to much money!!  I can't believe it.  We went to food pantry's and though give very little for a family with 7 persons and 5 of those are children!  Our living expenses could not be less. We have one vehicle as we can't afford two and gasoline is so high that we can't go anywhere that may eat up our way to work. There are absolutely no extras.  We couldn't even buy a package of hamburger this last paycheck.  I do not know what else to do.  We looked for cheaper living but there are none cheaper than this!  The children clothing is embarressing and there is nothing I can do about it.  If anyone could help with say and food cards or clothing cards we would be blessed more than you will ever know and we would be very appreciate of anything that could be done.  You may email me at  texfam@live.com if you have anyquestions .  Bless everyone here!
