[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People saying she should move closer to work -- we don't know where her home is and where her job is. I'm betting she lives way out in MD or VA (or WVA) and her job is close to DC. In which case moving closer is NOT an option. Do you get any disability payments for your child? If not - look into it. Also SNAP. Hopefully other PPs have some idea of ways to make a few extra dollars here and there. Babysitting? Rent out a room? [/quote] She referenced leaving DC several times. I assumed she moved to like Christianburg, VA or Danton, Ohio. Where-else would a full-time job be able to pay you $1,200 and that's considered standard? So if she can relocate her kids to an apartment in the center of a town with a low COL then I say do it. If her job is in DC or Boston...then that just creates more problems you're right. [/quote]
