Mothers Helping hands

I came upon a young lady who was 15 years of age.  She had told me that her family was living paycheck to paycheck her mother had other children and that she was a single parent. She then said she found out that she was pregnant, and she went to t talk to her mother.  The mother was so upset and told her that she could barely feed them and now she is adding another mouth to feed.  Her mother then told her she had to find somewhere else to live.  She stated that she did not want to give up her baby.  I asked her to call her mother and asked her if she had a sponsor that would help provide the essentials that the baby needed she would be willing to let her come back home. The mother agreed that if she did not have to provide anything for the child, it was not like she did not want to. It is that she had other children to take care of and that living paycheck to paycheck was not easy.  Mother Helping Hands is trying to help teen mothers to have happy and healthy babies. Mother Helping Hands is trying to help families stay together.  There are over 11,000 and counting children in foster care. There are just not enough people adopting these children. Please help us to keep mother and child together.
