I have a question ... will I still be able to get free child care like day care if I don't put my child's father on child support ? I know I won't get food stamps and medicaid for myself if I don't put him on it . I'm in the state of Florida .

I am determined and driven for success FAILURE isn't an option for me. I potty trained my oldest at 9 months old. My 2 middle son's were more difficult they were between 18 months and 2 years old. My baby boy was showing interest in potty training, I decided to buy him a potty chair. Potty training tips 1.) Don't rush your child 2.)Don't yell at your child 3.) Don't punish your child for having accidents 4.) Don't give you child candy 5.) Don't compare other children to your child 6.) Do praise your child 7.) Clap your hands when your child goes to the potty. 8.)Take your child every 15-30 minutes to the potty 9.)Don't criticize your child 10.) I don't recommend pull ups but I don't bash mothers who decided to use them. 11.) Remember potty training is not taught in one day you have to be determined to potty train your child.

I don't care what ppl think of me, but I'm seriously considering putting my baby up for adoption. I love her with all of heart, but doing this alone is hard. Every single night she just screams to the top of her lungs and I do everything to soothe her. I don't know what to do at all. I wish I had some kind of help. I don't have a single ounce of help. I don't know a single soul in Minnesota either.
Everyone is in such a tissie about who spanks their child who cares everyone has a difference in opinion you know what I disagree with child leashes I cringe when I see one but I would never attack someone for their choice to use it get over yourself you shoving your opinion down someone’s throat will not change what they decide to do.
I don't think she gets it. I swear sometimes I just need to renew my policy to not look at the comments in Facebook. I never used to. I don't know why I started. But the ignorance is real.

I used to live in Jacksonville and my sisters are both gettin food stamps and their bd's aren't on child support they usually do that when money is given to you . If they do ask id say you haven't heard from him since you were pregnant

you don't have to have an open child support case, they ask if u want to go fwd and you say no, as long as you answer their questions, your child can still get medicaid benefits and food stamps ,or healthy start insurance in fl,covers any child who gets denied medicaid in fl

check around many places offer help for daycare especially if its a smaller daycare .or use an organization to help lower costs

@nygirl3rdbabymiami, and what part of Florida might u live in ? cause here in Tallahassee the only child care provider is ELC .
sherry S·
actually I live in Florida,,they have lots of programs to help with daycare costs. but, if u claim you and your child's father live together u still have to show income ,and they base it off need ,good luck

For child care they usually do a case by case basis and would qualify you based on whether or not you have received any type of assistance (food stamps, anything) in the last 2 years. If you haven't then you qualify. But cases are reviewed and investigated before acceptance. Once they find out the baby has a father who was not listed on the certificate, your eligibility will be ranked accordingly.
