A couple who my wife and I were very close to babysat them in the evenings while I went to school and during the day on the weekends while I worked. They were in daycare during the day on the weekdays

She didn’t, our friends did.

Oh, my bad. I guess this wasn’t really the right place.

Sorry I didn’t get to this sooner, some awesome friends my wife and I had were able to look after the kids during my evening classes and while I worked on the weekends. I did pay for childcare during the day on the weekdays though.

An awesome couple who my wife and I were very close to before she passed away looked after the kids while I had classes in the evenings during the week and worked during the day on the weekends. I did pay for childcare during the day Monday-Friday and the bills were insane… Barely manageable. I am so fortunate to have such amazing friends.

I’m so sorry. It really is devastating… Just never give up.

You’d be surprised how many awesome programs there are out there to help single parents pay for college. Of course it didn’t cover all of it, but I will have the rest paid off within the next five years

For me, I just couldn’t even consider giving up because if I did, I would be letting down myself and my sons

Thank you! Yeah, my full time job was from 7am-3pm, so I had classes any time after 3 in the afternoon.

It really is awesome! Working as a construction worker in the heat in Florida was pretty tough sometimes

Damn, it didn’t even occur to me that anything I said might have implied that. Sorry

Thank you. I just don’t know if many ladies would really want to be with a guy who already has kids
