working two part-time jobs to make ends meet

As a single dad, I'm barely scraping by, struggling to afford groceries despite working two jobs, and feeling like I'm not doing enough to provide for my son.

What I wish I knew
"I wish I had a better education and more job opportunities in my town to give me a chance to improve my financial situation."
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't be afraid to ask for help and seek advice when you're struggling – it's okay to not have all the answers."
