Description
I’m a single mum; my daughter is 12 and I need help. I’m sure there are still kind-hearted people out there who can help me ensure my little girl, who already understands the value of money, doesn’t go without anything...She isn’t asking for anything; it’s me who feels I’m depriving her of the carefree nature of her age... I do cleaning work and I’d have to do it for 25 hours in a 24-hour day, and even then we’d still be struggling to make ends meet... I’d like to give her more... I’d like to spend Sundays watching her walk about, even if it’s just with a small bag of crisps in her hand, and not have to make excuses for nothing with my non-existent tiredness, but out of shame at not having any money to spend on Sundays... this is a triviality, yet only a parent can understand what lies behind it... I have no family... I have no one to lean on...
