    Single Mother Need Advice

    Devon Rex replied to kailynnsmom's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It doesn't seem that you have support system that would help you look out for your child if/when money runs out. Your 5-year-old is priority... so I'd suggest you go route #2 while you work and worry...
