[quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry to hear of the stressors in your life right now. Try to go easy on yourself and also to become aware of your triggers so you can respond in a way that guides your daughter instead of flipping out. Sounds like wasting food is one of them. And I know this is easier said than done, I’ve just found it helpful to stay ahead of my anger so I can (mostly) respond calmly and constructively to my kids. $ has been tight for us for years and we have bought most of our clothes at thrift stores. I’ve found new shoes there, too, but you can likely get a decent pair of low cost new shoes at Marshall’s. I agree with prior posters on Aldi’s. Also, CVS sometimes discounts things like milk and Cheerios and canned salmon significantly. Hummus is on sale now at Safeway. Assuming your daughter is school-aged, talk to the counselors before school starts and I bet they will help with back to school supplies or connect you with a church or other org doing backpacks for kids. Good luck. This too shall pass.[/quote]
