megs85 Okay you said you use SOME flyers, up the ante and do a full letterbox drop in an area where you think your target market is highest. Print up some business cards and hand them to family and friends who can pass them out when an opportunity arises. A blog or...

Thanks to all who have been wonderfully supportive at this time. I did break down and get food assistance, so we are eating better and I'm not as terrified as I was previously. Also I have taken a leap and posted classified ads...

Stephannie Hello. Good to hear from you again. I'm so glad things are looking better for you. Just hang in there and it will all work itself out soon. Maybe it is meant for you to be with your child, so I think it is great you can take your little one with you sometimes....

questionthis This is a great subject, but I feel a need to vent a little about it. Who is thinking about the kid? I can understand being angry because the mother is using the money to support her bad habits and not working - and I agree on that point...but all of the...

kgwat70 Child support is needed to help those parents who are taking care of their kids on their own. You can't allow someone to just abandon their kids after getting divorced. Both parents have a responsibility to help raise their kids, even if they are no longer...

I just can't understand it. A man you think you love and think loves you gets increasingly controlling long before he first hits you. The need for him to control you is the first sign. Why let it get beyond that? But women do....

babydolphin I agree totally. Love doesnt hurt someone, love doesnt hit someone. I think some (or many?) woman stays with their partner first because it has been going on too long, and they are afraid of the life out there without him, the abuser may threatened to do...

dixielol If the child is not his, I dont think he'd get his money back. But he wouldn't have to pay any more child support. Differant states set differant time frames, but if they was married for over a certin number of years & she depended soly on him for support then...
