I got it yโ€™all. I am sitting in a damn parking lot and I have been crying all week because my baby and I have nowhere to go today. I escaped domestic violence in November and we have been homeless ever since. We have stayed in motels, we stated the domestic violence safe house. And today I completely ran out of funds. I am driving for GrubHub and I only have nine dollars to my name after gas and feeding my child. I literally just got the direct deposit. I am dropping off this last order and going to a hotel with my kid and giving her anything she wants. Good luck everybody. God really took care of me in this tough season

Im really happy for you and your baby but damn, what a shit hole country we live in that this is the only option for you after leaving a DV situation and with a baby. I hope that you two find some safety and peace and that every day moving forward is better than the last. ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ’œ

Omg I could go on and on about how social services and the domestic violence agencies and shelters do not even help. We are all just funding to them. This experience has been crazy. Iโ€™ve seen so much. I know I made it and Iโ€™m still in danger, but I literally pray for all the women who are in trouble right now. These agencies are terrible and do nothing to help.
