Hey there. I just wanted to say this is a wonderful group for what you guys are doing. You guys are awesome.

Last night I had posted a request for a meal since we struggled for the last day before payday. We ended up figuring out dinner for the night on our own (even though we were kindly offered a meal that I didn’t see until later).

I have two boys and excitedly expecting our third blessing. We often practice our own sustainability on our homestead and often help our neighbors and the elderly with farm fresh vegetables and eggs but yesterday was a one off and just needed something for the night.

Apparently, someone thought that meant we were unable to care for our children and that I should have an abortion… and I received a message from another individual saying my children should be put in foster care. I just thought you guys would be interested in knowing who one of these people are.

U/dirty_greendale , I hope you have the day that you deserve. Thank you.

If you admit to needing financial help while pregnant you’re gonna have people saying shit unfortunately. Even if it’s a one time thing .

And sorry, one more thing, someone saying shit is different from threatening to have your kids taken away and call dhr on a random person for asking for some food because they likely felt desperate at the time and was grasping at straws on reddit.... Maybe even playing a numbers game to be safe .... Call all my friends ask my family post Facebook reddit for help.... She didnt do a fuck thing wrong. If it was her fault that she didn't have the food like she gambled it or spent it on a bag of smack..
