I am New to SFV |
I need advice, I have never been in a position where there was nothing I could do..and my kids are depending on me. I lost my job, I'm getting kicked out of my home and I have no money. I have job opportunities in another state but I can't take my kids if I have nowhere for them to go. I am trying my best to get my accountant to get my W2 ready so that I can file my taxes and get my money ASAP and have made arrangements for my mom to take my kids for a couple of weeks so that I can go to GA and get a place to rent as well as a job...so that we can get on with our lives. I feel so lost I am considering going back to my ex husband, but it would just be an easy way out, and I know I can't stay there...that would only hurt my kids more. What can a mom do in my situation? Couldn't social services in GA help me get this together. I need advice on making this work or else I have to go back to my ex husband and it would only end up ruining his life and the kids'......

I moved to georgia from Arizona when I just turned 18yrs old I had a daughter 9months old. I would suggest just as I did and then you don't have to leave your children.. stay with and do as I did.. if you can... get the money from your w-2 and look on line or in a phne book for the city you want to move(from the library) and find an appt over the phne send in the deposit by mail buy plane tickets.. or drive with children taxi from airport if you fly and go to your new appt. find a job near there. when you get there.. even if its at a burger king... (but you said you already have a job and is reason why you have to move) finding daycare is easy look in phne book when you get there. nothing has to be permant and can be changed later in move. if your serious about making this work with your children you can... I did... I didn;t even have a car when I first moved.. bus and taxis are great.. But just have faith it maybe hard at first but it is tottally possible. good luck

Hi, wendy, I just joined this site..If at all possible do not go back to your ex. I was in the same situation, no one in my family offered to help, but friends from worked let me and my 2 kids stay with her until i saved enough money to get an apartment and pay rent and security. try asking friends first..so may of us are in the same situation, that its those people who offer what little assistance they can spare, without expecting much in return, but seeing you and your kids happy |

Hi, I live in Indiana so im not sure about georgia without looking it up, but if you are on any kind of service meaning tanf or foodstamps, some states do have a program to help with relocation costs. In kentucky it is $1500. I will look and see if i can find anything on this in your current state. Ill let you know what i find.
