I guess that would depend on how easy or difficult it would be to move. If you are more concerned about health benifits than salary you could go and work for a Walmart they do have health benifits from what I have heard, and in time the income is not bad either. We have a friend who works there and says he makes around $18.00 an hour but he has been working there for about 7 years. I would also be pretty upset with your husband if I was you.

I feel for you in this perdicament. I would tell the hubby that it's now or never. Make that stand. Let him know that your mental health is depending on a peice of mind worth thinking about and that he is not helping at all. You are not a slave, you are amother and a wife but there is a limit to the madness. Go to all the temp agencies that you can and register with them. You might not like all the jobs that they provide but this gives you experience. Along the same lines, register for school. Once you are a parent there are all kinds of pell grants to get for school. This can help get you on your feet with the extra money you might not need for books and tuition. Just say your prayers and make a stand. If hubby don't get it, they he can get out and you can easily go on welfare and make him work by asking for child support. Best of luck to you!!
