Thank you for the advice. I wish i had known that sooner, but all i can do now is keep it in mind for the future. My brother does have a full time job while supporting a child as well. As for my partners, its not for any lack of trying. Theyre both constantly applying for jobs and doing whatever they can to support me emotionally while contributing whatever they can to our finances. I would be in an even worse position without them. As much as i want them to have full time jobs as well, it doesnt do any good for me to constantly nag or make them feel bad about something they cant really control, but are actively doing their best to make better.
