need help paying bills"
need help with bills! African american woman 3 kids, have taken care of my family by myself. Divorced mother. Father has not paid child support for all their life.There has been an order of child support, but because I am not on public assisstance, I believe the court system does not consider my case important. he has filed for bankruptcy and although they (juvenile court) tells me that he still has to pay, it has been years and no financial help. I am doing the best I can putting my children through school and paying for medical/dental alonf with keeping a roof over our heads, but in the past few months, it has beengetting very difficult! My energy bill has risen to about $1300 dollars. I have been trying to pay the minimum they ask for a month but it is constantly adding up. I am getting later and later on car payments,and mortgage. I am hoping maybe ther is a program out there to help me or individuals who can help. I have worked hard all my life and have not looked to public assistance. Thanks just for reading!
