Hi, I just read your post. Just wanted to let you know I think I am pretty close to you. I am in the arklatex area too. Louisiana. I would love to offer you a hand, if you like.
I am new to this board, but was on the SS board. There are some posters here that could vouch for me. CL is one.
I will send you a PM, as soon as I figure out how. LMK know if you wanna try and get together.
I am a single mom with a 16yr daughter, and a 20 yr son.

Hi ThreeDecades!! I'm new to these boards but posted on the old ones a few times over the past several years. I just wanted to add my warm wishes and say that I'm so glad you are here! These boards are filled with really great people who all understand and have really great ideas. On the financial side of things, I've suggested this to others before and I'll suggest the same to you and that is www.modestneeds.org which is really a great charity that you can apply for help from. As a child (well, all my life actually) I have had anxiety and gotten sick when exposed to stressful situations (though not to the extent you and your poor kiddo's have!) Is there any type of anti-anxiety medication or therapy that might help them (and you)? I'm thinking especially of biofeedback. I work with a psychologist who specializes in that and he is able to really help people to overcome things by showing them how to use their brains to regulate what their bodies are doing. My thoughts and prayers are with you! PS: And CONGRATULATIONS for taking out the fish tank!!!!!!!

Head Start is like kindergarten, and it is free. Also, a lot of churches have church ladies willing to do emergency babysitting for free. Call around and ask. Even the little tiny storefront churches here have women who do emergency overnight babysitting for free.
I'm in Arkansas. I would be glad to come help you if you're in my vicinity.

Now that I've read all the posts (missed page 2 the first go-round), I understand that your kids can't go to Head Start. Sorry.
