I am a married father of four who needs help. I work but my wife has been unemployed for over 18 months, but she is looking. Recently everything has come tumbling down on my family. All of my utilities are in jeapordy of being turned off and we are also in danger of losing our home (rental). I have trouble looking my children in the eye because I feel like thier world as they know it is a focade soon to be exposed. I try to keep food on the table and pay bills when I can, but I feel so overwhelmed at this point. If for some reason we needed to leave abrubtly I do not know where we would go or what we would do. I am clueless as what to do in this type of situation and do not know where to turn. I would greatly appreciate any advice/direction. I would be lost without my children in my life and I am sure they would suffer without me, but sometimes I feel like they would be better off with me out of the picture.
