I understand the title is a weird one to start asking for money. I have two kids with one being from a previous relationship and one from my current marriage. We are currently spending hours a day transporting kids from one sitter to the next or when picking them up from school and sitters house. One child is in school full time but the other is a newborn.
Daycare for just the one child is about $1300 per month and that is only if we are able to do drop off and pickup within operating hours which isn’t always the case unfortunately which then costs start to go up or we have to miss work.
I currently make significantly less than my spouse which makes more sense for me to be a stay at home dad for the time being. The downside is that in order for all our bills to be paid comfortably on one income we need to pay debt down. We took on a large amount of debt from the pregnancy which has been tough to pay. Student loans are now going way up due to being kicked off of the SAVE program that was canceled.
I am only asking for $30,000 in total which would allow us to pay off the $10,000 left for the medical bills. The other $20,000 would go towards credit card debt and personal loans that we have had to take out to pay for daycare costs and trying to pay down high internet credit card debt.
Being a stay at home dad with no household debt would be the best interest for my family and development of my growing child. I have worked extremely hard to build our family and have gone through enough setbacks and really want to get ahead and still be there to help raise my newborn. We are working hard to build a sustainable future but just looking to get a little help financially to get things into a better position for everyone.
I greatly appreciate any help that is givin and have the greatest utmost respect to anybody willing to help make this happen for our family.
Thank you
