Good grief. And here I am, early thirties, stressed I'm falling behind.
Don't burn yourself to keep others warm. They both need help, but they need to ask the right orgs. The most I would do is point them towards Ask Izzy if they're struggling financially.
Honestly reckon they just need an adult to come in and go "Right, you do X, You do Y! No not tomorrow, right fucking now!" But good point on burning yourself to keep others warm. We're managing ok where we are right now, but if we're being honest having a toddler is tough some days! Rewarding, dont get me wrong! But tough. We're all running our own race.
