I am a single mother of a two year old son. The father of my son is not in his life at all, he has never met my son. He pays the minimum amount of child support required, which would not cover even a week's cost of daycare. Currently, he is suing for visitation rights, leading me to hire a lawyer. I strive to balance work, school, and motherhood to the best of my ability. Financially, it has been an ongoing struggle to provide everything a child could possibly need in the situation we are in. Thus, he is the reason I want to succeed. My family lives below the poverty line, we both reside with my mother (who works two jobs) and sister. I desire the best life possible for him, I want to be able to provide the necessities.
