Is Asking For Help Just To Much This Holiday Season?

Is Asking For Help Just To Much This Holiday Season? Today is Thanksgiving an I am thankful for so much in my life, we are a close family and went to have dinner as so many others do this time of year with close friends and family. Over the last few years we have lost may loved one due to their passing. We shared memories of things we all did growing up around the table.With many memories of our loved ones we also shared a few hours together today in our busy lives just relaxing after cleaning up our Thanksgiving dinner while the men watched footballs today. I enjoyed my granddaughter running around as we used to do when I was a small child. The laughter through the house was wonderful to hear. With so many things going on its sometimes hard to get us all together in one place. I am one of 4 children and we are all married with grown up children and grandchildren.

I would not of know one of our own kids was in trouble if someone would not of pulled me to the side and asked me how can we help them. I asked whats wrong like any other person would do. I was told they were now homeless as her husband had lost his job due to no work being available. There is one car between them and 2 babies. Anna has a part time job but does not make enough to pay the rent and they were evicted. Its all most winter now and the end of November. She is just in her middle 20s with 2 small children, they are now living with a friend till they can find someplace to go. A family of 4 with no address of their own. With so many families falling on hard times this year and what can we do? How can we help them? Will they even let us help them? Some are to proud to ask or have no idea where to turn.

I can not take them in as I have my daughter and granddaughter already living with me. They where staying at my one sisters till some one called the police and reported them having to many people in a 2 bedroom apartment. They were given notice to either remove the extra people now living there or they to would be evicted. She already has her son and his 2 children living there. How do you put out your own children can you tell me?The children do not understand, and at 20 the parents are just kids to. What do you do? Where do you turn? How can we help them? Is Asking For Help Just To Much This Holiday Season? Well it has gotten me thinking and I am asking anyone that can help to help. I have a online store and if you purchase something all proceeds will go to this family that I would of received during the month of December 2009.
