I have been thinking alot of leaving my husband. More likely, kicking him out. I just cant take it anymore. I have been a homemaker for 6 years. I have had a few jobs during that time, but always quit because my husband couldnt handle the kids alone. Needless to say, noone in town will hire me now, because I couldnt keep a job. I dont know what to do. How can I survive with 3 small children, when the only place of emplyment would likely be a fast food place? I have no college education, and I have litteraly worked at every factory in town at one point or another. Now, they wont hire me back. None of my family wouldb e able to help, and I dont even know how I would afford daycare.
I just cant stay in the marrage anymore, at least not for now. Maybe after a few months of separation I would feel different, but he has to go now. Thats another problem, he has no where to go. His family lives far away, and he doesnt have any close friends. I have never lived alone. I am scared that I wont be able to make enough to sapport my children. I really need some advice!




Well, maybe you can work at a child care center (take your kids to work with you!).... call the local schools/colleges and see what kinds of programs they have that will work for you.
Most of all, remember... time changes a lot, and those employers may be willing to give you another shot... first of all, I suggest that you talk to an attorney or legal aid to find out what your rights and responsibilities are and that will give you a place to start.
