Help!!!!! For Senior Grandparents raising Grandchildren...

Created by D.M. on January 05, 2017

There are So many Grandparents that are raising their grandchildren, I know we all if not most need financial assistance. We need help as most of our retirement is going to raise our grandchildren from no fault of ours or the children. We need help with Food, Clothing, School, even gas to take them here and there. My husband cant even retire because he has to support us all. Had plans all made and now that isn't even an option. He is 68. They say we make to much money for food stamps or any kind of help, although I for one would not go on food stamps. I'm not saying its wrong just not for me. We Do need some kind of assistance though. We should not need to struggle at our age. HELP Please!
