Hey @Sunnyside226 ,
I hope you don't mind me making this thread for you.
I just wanted you to know that the whole forums community is here to support you through this challenging time.
Please look after yourself. I recognise it's hard to look after three small children on your own.

@ArraDreaming whats wrong with the kids I care for? Because I am helping my brother out they won't be there straight away to look after them?
What's so poor about that? Would you want them in child protection or on the streets?
Gee how about everyone just leave me the fuck alone no I am not good enough for them hey everyone has to be so rude about it
I am leaving I am not going to sit here and be abused by someone who doesn't know the situation
Goodbye

@Birdofparadise8 sorry it taken me a day to reply
As to answer your question why I have them on my own
Because my partner is away with work and my sister isn't capable of doing it
So it leaves me to do on my own but my friend has been helping when they can

I might just call my brother up and say sorry I can't look after them because I am not good enough
@tyme
It doesn't matter now the poor kids get everything they get feed they have a roof over they heads a bed to sleep in I buy them whatever they want yet I still get told those poor kids? Is it because I am not a female?

That must be hard for you @Sunnyside226
I'm sure you’re doing your best.
I'm sorry that you are upset sometimes things can get a bit tricky with text-based communication. I'm thinking of you!

@Sunnyside226 no one here is questioning your capability hun, more thinking about the kids being away from their parents for so long. Poor kids, and poor you for having so much heaped upon your shoulders to carry alone. From everything you've shared, it sounds like you're doing a bang up job in a really crappy situation.
If you need a breather, that's all good - we'll be here for you when you return 💜
