[quote=Anonymous]She already said she can't file for food stamps! It has nothing to do with child support payments becoming official. If she gets them, the payments are official. She can't apply and lie about them. Do you think OP hasn't researched this adequately? As for becoming a victim, I think OP is already a victim. Show a little empathy on that front! I think the advice should be to not let herself become more of a victim -- but with the understanding that it is TOUGH. Especially with a SN child and no family in the area and the economy in the pits. OP, the nanny is a good thought but it's a juggling act if families expect you to be there through 6:30 as many do. Put on the bravest face you can, and don't use words like "poor" or "broke." Say you're on a budget. That's what I've done. Good luck. [/quote]
