My daughter has 6 kids and one on the way, 3 girls are hers (and the little guy coming in a few months, lol) and the other 3 kids came into the family with her husband. Their mom lost custody of them.
My daughters oldest is 19 yrs old and mostly stays at her dads house because of the tight space now at her moms house. She's in college & works. The youngest child is 9 months old (my daughter's child with her husband). My daughter can't work because of all the kids & it would be way more than she would earn to put a few in daycare. And the fact that school buses don't stop to pick up near their house and she has to drop 3 of them off at 3 different schools, then pick up after school. So, they rely only on her husband's pay. Their house that they rent is not good, and not in a good area, not much better than their last one tbh. Truthfully, it's scary visiting. It looks like right next to her rental property is swampy area, so back yard gets flooded when it rains and some mornings, she has to run off some wild pigs before they can get kids in the car for school.
She told me they are not on any help because they are told her husband makes too much money. I can tell you for a fact they have no money after bills are paid. They live in Fl, y'all know it's expensive there. Her husband is a mechanic working for a company doing odd jobs that need being done at job sites, along with fixing any company vehicles that break down. Thankfully his boss is extremely understanding & good to him.
My daughters second child (13 yrs old) started having heart problems that docs don't seem to know how to help her with. She misses so much school but still has good grades. Daughter had to go to a meeting at school to show them paperwork from the doctors that she isn't being truant, that she actually has a heart condition. Last time she was having an episode the damn nurse sent her back to class without calling her mother, next thing she's throwing up in the middle of class over and over, then they called her mom. I don't understand how she all of a sudden started having heart problems just in the last year or so. No, she didn't get any of the vaxxes or flu shots. None of them did.
