[quote=Anonymous]How old is your child? Does your child not have their own bed? It sounds like they share a bedroom with you? Can you explain this? My friend is a single mom and earns about what you do in a very expensive area. When her child turned 5, she moved from a 1 bedroom apartment to a 2 bedroom apartment. They still live there and her child is in high school now. Your child needs their own bed at a minimum. How old is your child? At some point he will need his own bedroom. You may have to compromise on location to be in the school area you want and for your child to have their own bedroom. I have a friend who lived in a 1 bedroom apartment with her mom in junior high and high school. She had the bedroom and her mom put a bed in an alcove in the living room with curtains about it. There are solutions if you can only afford a 1 bedroom apartment, but your child needs some space of their own. [/quote]
