    I grew up in a poor household with parents who married early and no knowledge whatsoever about raising a family. I grew up needing badly all kinds of support until I come of age. As a child, being left alone or with needs being ignored SUCKS a lot. This is why when I got older, I make sure I help my family or anyone when I see that they need it, unsolicited or otherwise. I wish I had someone like me when I was a kid. I think we should offer help and guidance to minors but only guidance to young adults..

    So true.!!! I love to work and when you work hard, resentment kicks in by those who like to sit around and do nothing. Working with these people I learned so much what not to be. These are all good words being said and acknowledge but I will always be a hard worker. It’s in my blood. My father worked hard and I learned from him. Plus my Good Father sees everything and He blesses me.💪🏽🤓

When my husband caught dementia and walked out on me taking our only money with him, I was mentally devistated and my mother helped me for around 6 months until I got back my mind to get on my feet with. Now I've repayed her over half the money in just one month and I'll give her the rest very soon.

    This all will be true if all the circumstances faced by people are natural. We can’t have powers that be /man made problems yet expecting everyone to be able to stand on their own. I understand since the issue already exists we should all strive to do and be better but in reality other people do not want to see other people doing well. Jealousy, hate, unfairness, pure evil, spiritual wickedness are all contributing factors….
