Traci, I'm so sorry you're going to have to move. We had our son out in the cornfields picking up corn to take to the elevator for money since he was 8 years old. There are a lot of things a 15 year old can do. Mow yards, weed flower beds, clean out shed/garages for people that are older. Run errands for the elderly, what about delivering a paper?
I'll keep you and your family in my prayers Traci.

Our town paper requires you to be able to drive. We have so many people who live far out in the country that you can't deliver a paper without one and our paper doesn't come out until noon so he is in school.As far as yard work, most people here live in aptments and have it done by the landlord or require that you bring your own lawnmower, ect. I had never thought about garages letting him wash cars so I will have to call a few in this area.

I'm sorry that your family is going through this. It's a really hard time to be raising teenagers. You might ask your church if there's some people who could use the help of a teenager and explain your situation. I hope that everything works out.

Bless you heart, you have you hands, not full, but overloaded. So sorry.
We will all pray for you and your family. I have tough times with teens and I know how hard it is.

I am sure that some of you have wondered where I have been. I know mom and Angie posted from time to time about me. I am now divorced. I did get evicted from my home because Damon had charges. (I lived in public housing.) After this my husband talked me into moving to dc closer to his parents where "jobs were better and the kids would get a better education." Well he moved into his parents home and went up there 20 days before I. He was to "find a place for us and get things ready" I had to come up without him having those things done. I drove up and the kids and I stayed in a hotel for 10 days. After the 10 days he told me that he was leaving me and was taking my youngest daughter to Florida to move in with a couple he had met online. Paniced and not knowing what else to do, I brought her back to TN where the kids church gave us a place to stay. He took me to court and won temporary custody because I was unemployed, had a temporary home, and he said the other children are a danger to Sydney. We got our divorce, but I am still fighting for my baby girl. He has just sent motions to the court requesting that I only see her twice a month and supervised by his parents for 4 hours each. He only wants to hurt me and collect the income taxes and child support for our daughter. I just have to prove this in court on the 15th. All of you thoughts being with Sydney, myself as well as the other three children during this would be greatly appectated. I miss you all. I am also on facebook andlog in there quite often for any who wish to add me. My name is now Traci Thomas. How do I change my name on 4wt? Anyone who knows the answer please post it for me. *hugs*

Traci I am sorry to hear this news. I didn't see this post when it was written last year. I have read the threads and I hope that your son has gotten the help he needs with the anger issues..
As far as your divorce I am sorry to hear about that to. All this has happen in the year. I feel for you my friend and I pray for you that your ex returns your daughter to you. She needs to be with you her mom and siblings. I hope that you can convince the judge that when you go to court.. My prayers will be with you. I will look for you on FB, as far as changing your name on here you may have to sign up again under another name I would imagine, maybe one of the other ladies can give you better imput.. Good luck... |
