Carla,
I wanted to respond after reading your post. It really touched my heart. I don't know how much I can offer other than support as I'm brand new to this site myself. I have three daughters and the middle one has been my challenge. So I might be able to relate a bit as I definately wanted to enroll her military school about 3 years ago. I've never met a more difficult person and that includes my husband
I understand you're looking for an opportunity to work at home and I wanted to at least list an opportunity that I know about. It's a company called Scentsy. I'm not sure about what your interest are but if you love scented candles you might want to try something like this. It's a party plan company but I absolutely love it. I've been doing it for just about 2 years now and I can tell you it been nothing but a blessing to me and my family. It's not something that is going to let you stay home right away but if you worked at it hard it could be your retirement.
I have a website I would love you to look at but please don't feel obligated. If you do decide to check it out please request additional information on the contact us page so I can send you a catalog and a DVD about the opportunity (free)
It's
Forever Wickless Scentsy Candles
Good luck I wish you all the best.
Christie
