So I used to run a successful construction business but last year an accident happened during an assignment & not only did the business go bankrupt but also went into huge debt from all the legal stuff I had to pay off. Sold house, sold cars, sold everything valuable. Now I have a day job which doesn’t pay super well. I have a son and I feel like I’m letting him down, even though he’d never admit it; on the contrary, he always comforts me & tells me he’s happy with what we have. I basically cut off all of my personal expenses to spend the money on him. I feel so bad everyday.
Become a socialist and realize it’s not your fault, you are just trying to get through.
Yeah, go to work every morning while the world ends and everything looks like it will only get worse from here. It’s not easy, and knowing your kids will only get it worse doesn’t reassure anyone. Best you can do (all you can do?) is be there for them
