Hey everyone

I'm S., 23 years old, mom of a 2.5-year-old boy and a 9-month-old daughter, and I've been in the Netherlands for a few weeks now. I'm staying in a house for families with problems (an anonymous shelter).

I left because of issues with my ex and my family, out of the blue... I was completely fed up with the comments from others saying I'd never do anything right and could only work if my kid wasn't there... (I temporarily worked in the sex industry in my home country, which is where my son was born). I was just so done with all of it... So I left for the Netherlands, and I've been here for 2 weeks, found a lovely friend, and can forget all my worries!! I still live in a shelter and need to find work so I can look for a house... But it's hard for me because I have 2 kids under 3.

I hope I can open up here from time to time.

    Wow, Mamavan, that must not be simple!
    Fortunately, this forum serves to let off some steam now and then.
    Have you been able to give it all a place (or maybe bit by bit, that must not have been easy either). But it's good that you dare to stand up for yourself!
