[QUOTE="Precious2k1, post: 718606, member: 22248"] Good morning. I am so thrilled I found you all. Thank you for the reccommendations. This is a breath of fresh air to speak with people who can relate and not just offer advise based on thought and ideals. A sense of guilt rushes over me when she's leaving and says she has to get back to the shelter by curfew. But then I mentally talk to myself to not give in to the guilt. My daughter is exactly where she wants to be. I say this because her dad has a house in Atlanta and her bedroom is big enough for her and the baby. Like me her dad refuses to take her in but will temporarily care for the baby until she gets on her feet. But that's not what she wants. She moves from shelter to shelter because they hold you for 10 days then you reapply again. Sometimes she gets lucky and gets to stay another 10 days. She was given a voucher to get an apartment, $1200, but NYC is hard to get an apartment with a voucher & for that price. She knows she needs help; been cutting herself since JHS. I will share the information with her. Hopefully something good comes out of this. I'm helping from afar with information and leads. Thanks again [/QUOTE]
