Oh man, msbelle. I totally understand the flight instinct, and wish there were anything I could actually do to help. Seriously, let me know if I can spell you or help do anything at home or whatever.
Just call me the computer whisperer.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
QUAKE

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
spell me?
Anything I need from the hood, if I can't get out, I can get someone nearby to get for me. Thanks though.
I think I'll call the agency that did my homestudy and see if they have counseling/psych recs.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I wish I could help, msbelle. Wishing you and the little boy strength and clarity.
Didn't feel the quake over here, Allyson. No fair.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Oh, msbelle. I don't have to be a parent to know that it's hard, even under the "best" conditions. And your situation is far from ideal, but you are *such* a good mom to E. He'll realize that when he's older.
I wish there were something I could do to help.
So I just went and ordered the shoes.

Because books.
msbelle, if you had to pay someone to attend with him, would it be possible to simply pay someone to sit with him at home instead? It would cut the cost a little, even if it wouldn't provide the same type of socialization.
I'm so, so sorry about all this. I wish it were easier to see inside his head, you know? But I think calling the home study people is a good step.
