    Life w/o my daughter's father... He was our only asset.
    I moved to a small town which resides on my mother's hometown... I've been struggling daily with not knowing what to do. There's no job openings, we lived with my sister but she kicked us out. Now, as the weather gets colder and snow will fall sooner than expected. I've been doing what I can to keep us warm.. It's hard for me to say this, but I feel homeless. Helpless. I don't know what to do... My daughter's father calls and says he'll help if we go back to him but my heart is not capable to endure what I went through with him. It's very hard at this point in time because I've been getting really sick. Not knowing what to do next... any suggestions.

    Where do you live now? What is the problem if you move in with your daughter's father?

    Even small towns have social services, often shared with other small towns in the area.
    Look in the blue government pages under the town name.
    If you've been kicked out of your sister's, where are you living?

    With a friend of the family but if I were to go back... I'll be in the state of being controlled in my life. Under his rules... I lost myself when I was with him. I'm still trying to find myself.

    Is there a public library in town/in the area? They (reference dept) will know about social services around there. The town, township, and county must have helps available for you. Also area churches have outreach/social services offerings.
