<prompt> Human: As the title states; I am a single parent to three young children. I became a single parent when my Fiance passed away suddenly in a motorcycle accident in 2016. I was pregnant with our daughter at the time. Since then, we have moved in with my parents and in the process Ive been forced to give up almost all of my personal possessions. Since we were unmarried, his brother only family in the United States was able to legally claim all of his belongings. Everything in his checking accounts, savings, and business accounts, among all of his property from his business as well. The vehicle that I was driving was in my Fiances name and that was confiscated by his brother. Finding work has been incredibly hard where Im at. I do not have open availability because I do not have transportation. My mother has been gracious enough to allow me to use her car to go to work when she gets off. Even though I earned a Bachelors degree in Business, I am stuck working 3rd shift in warehouses for nothing more than 13hr, which is what Ive done for the past two years. The jobs are not always a reliable source of income since they have been through temp agencies and I frequently get laid off. Here is a brief overview of my current finances:I have 30 in checking.0 savings200 available in credit on a 2,500 card w25 interest.100 available in credit on a 500 card w25 interest.Currently, 35,000 in debt wSallieMae Im unsure of interest.I have about 2 other accounts in collections for student loans approx. 5,000 in total.My mother recently had a job transfer to another state so Im out of work. I have limited income.290 for my son for survivors benefits.290 for child support for my oldest daughter.Since I was unmarried and he obliviously wasnt present for the birth to sign the birth certificate, he is not listed. I am unable to receive any SS for her until I get a petition from a judge to have him listed. I already got a DNA, our son was tested to show relation of my youngest daughter to my Fiance. Lawyers have been expensive so Ive yet to had a chance to get any ruling so I can file for SS on her behalf.Im just tired of living this life. I want to buy my kids new shoes for once, for them to have their own bed and room. I want to have a meaningful career and have income that I can pay my bills, invest money, take care of my children. How do I get out of this? Is it even possible? Has anyone here or anyone you know been able to get themselves and their children out of poverty?  <response>: Something has to change. You either need to try to move closer to better work or get a car of your own. Im sorry, this is a really crappy position to be in. If you cant physically get to a job, there arent a whole lot of options. Do you know anyone who lives closer to a city that will help you out while you find better work? Like PP mentions, consider a trade or fry finding a government job. Try to get subsidized housing thats walking distance to jobs or close to public transportation. I cant stress enough that you have to be able to get to a reliable job to be able to attempt to break the cycle. That should be your highest priority. Also, government assistance. This is what its for. Apply for subsidized housing, TANF, whatever you can until you get a steady income flow.
