Your post made me a little teary, tbh. It’s good to hear of kindness in the world. I hope your weekend is full of sunshine and good days

Once I was also a poor single mother with two kids under the age of 3. I had escaped from a violent partner and left with almost nothing. I was struggling in so many ways but determined that my life was going to get better. One Christmas a relative that I rarely saw sent me $200 , and it was a lifesaver for me. I swore I would pay it forward and I have, many times over. That was over 40 years ago but I’ll never forget how that gift made me feel. Life has had many ups and many downs since then, but I still believe that there are angels among us if we’re open to seeing them. Hang in there and know that things can definitely improve for you.

too long didn't read

There is indeed much good in the world, and in humanity specifically, though more often than not the good is drowned out by the clamoring, flailing and vapid din of the bad. Good is less noticeable because it’s too busy DOING good to make a loud cacophony.

My own young son is Autistic. I have the privilege of being married however… my heart goes out to you having to go it alone. There’s nothing tougher than a single parent, x10 for one of a special needs Child.

I personally at present am so far past the breaking point that I look back years ago at the ACTUAL breaking point with a loving nostalgia at how grand those times were.

Life often cycles like that, years-long swings up and down. We’ll cycle back up… with some work on our part of course.

You will be okay in the long run. Just look at your daughter, people like the man who helped you, and most importantly, yourself, to remind you why you will get up tomorrow and do it again.

I’ll never understand why people feel the need to say this. If you don’t want to read something on here just don’t. Announcing your intention to not read it is weird.

Your such an ass . Lol

I am sorry you are having a tough time. Those are incredibly difficult circumstances and your feelings are valid. I hope things get easier for you.

Tell your landlord your neighbour’s girlfriend (who I’m assuming is not on the lease) is harassing you. That is not okay and they should be made aware. Also, try joining one of the mamas for mamas Facebook groups. They are made up of a community of moms who give away baby/child items. It’s a wonderful resource and there are often moms who are giving away strollers, etc. Sending good luck your way, OP.

God Bless you and your daughter <3 <3 <3 Amin. Sending you lots of kind, sweet, warm, loving, caring hugs. I am so sorry you are going through so much pain and hardship in life :( I am so glad that that man was kind to you. Our late dad (he died in 2009) told me that kindness never fails. It is so very daunting and challenging and difficult to have a child in this day and age without support, especially an autistic child. I commend you Beautiful GentleLady! it is sad how so many countless single moms have to raise their children on their own, without any viable support from the children's biological 'dads'. I commend all the single moms in this world! Bravo to all of you! In the old days, grandparents used to support their children's children (grandchildren), but nowadays, the family units have sadly severed, so few single moms have support from their parents. This male-dominated world is so broken, unfair, cruel, userous, greedy, selfish, cold-hearted, painfully difficult and lonely :( I can vouch for that. Thank God there are good samaritans in this broken, lower-dimensional, satan-ruled world. bible contains truths! Jesus is correct in all He Taught. Beautiful OP, if you feel up to it, you can feel solace in times of despair and stress by reading some verses of bible, on-line via computer, or in a physical bible. I am testimony of how soothing and edifying words in bible are, for example in the Psalms (for example Psalm 61). Also, Proverbs are a fountain of inspiration and teachings we so desperately need in our ever-broken, divided, lost, confused, helpless, hopeless, depressed, addicted, sad society :( We are in end of times. Jesus is our refuge. Amin. I Pray that God/Jesus is with you in your trying times, and I Pray that God Protect, Guides, Heals, Comforts, Soothes, and Provides all Provisions for you and your Daughter, Beautiful and Wonderful OP <3 <3 <3 Amin. We all need God/Jesus more than ever in these darker more difficult times of human history! I attest to this, as without Jesus, I would have killed myself many years ago already. He Saved me and my soul! H'AllyLieuYah! Sending you and your Daughter lots and lots of sweet, kind, loving, warm, tender, caring Agape brotherly Love & Embraces, Beautiful and Wonderful OP <3 <3 <3 Be well <3 <3 <3 God Bless you and your Daughter. Amin
