Any single moms or single ftm? My daughter is 6 months old. I had to recently move back in with my parents . My daughters father was a really mean person. It just didn't work. Now he got fired and can no longer help with costs for now. Although I did file for child support, and got a letter back saying it was approved. L not sure what will happen with that now. I work a minimum wage job, in high school still ( just for a semester) and takes care of my daughter with no help from her father. How did y'all be able to have a house or apartment on your own? I don't know how I can make this work. I really cannot stand to be told what to do with my daughter anymore. Any advice or tips? Also, my ex is demanding half of thing taxes back ( I'm claiming our daughter) what should I do about that? I really don't think he deserves it.
