hello all. I am single mom, I have a 3 yr old son, he is my sweetheart. I try to give him all I can, but money is not always as available as I would like. You know with a single income it can be hard. I am just wondering if anyone has any savng tips that work well for them or any other advice on being a single mom. I have found alot of interesting articles and links on this site called http://www.singlemotherresources.com But any other advice from people in the same situation would be graetly appreciated. Thank you

Hello, I am a single parent in Ca, I have a bio child 11yrs old I am 29, I am also in the process of adopting, I suggest you look in to your community to help, we have great websites in ca, especially craigslist, thier website is awesome, they have community gruops, free items, anything you can think of, I hope this works, the one thing I can think of is set up goals, and what you need instead of want. best of luck to you.

I would suggest you make a budget which includes putting some money aside every paycheck. This could then be used for vacations or something special. Being single is difficult in that you are the sole provider for your family, and you will need to make adjustments.

I hope you find the help you are looking for and don't get too stressed over money!!
