As a single mother, how do you do it?

How do you single mamas do it? My husband & I have only been separated for a month. He hasn’t helped me at financially. I have filed for custody & support but until then I feel like I’m drowning. Everytime I ask him for money he has an attitude & says he isn’t helping me out. He thinks he’s contributing by having the kids spend the night. My son has but only one night a week. My daughter doesn’t want to stay with him. Any advice? I’m already working two part time jobs while on disability.

Talk to his parents … maybe they can talk some sense in to him …. Very shitty for him to leave you with nothing financially. If he doesn’t want to just give you money tell him to buy you food and clothes

It’s crappy for both parts but if you’ve already filed for support , he’s right in not wanting to give you anything now, bc it can and usually will be seen as a gift. And then he would have to pay it again. How old are the kids , why don’t they want to go or is it that he won’t take them?

Call the courts make him pay
