Hey everyone.. Im a single mom but at the moment i am at job corps and my mom is watching my daughter. its only till im done with this schooling. My mom uses it against me and threatens that i shouldnt be there for my kid because some nights i cant call because of one of the jobs im involved in and the meetings i have that are at night time. i try to call early in the day but half the time she dont pick up. my daughter at times i dont speak to her cry for mommy. i need some advice on what to do. and i miss her like crazy but my moms not able to drive 6 hours to see me so i can see my daughter. idk how to feel or what to do about the situation.. HEEELLLLLPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! please
OMG, that has to be hard! I thought about going into the military for a while but I'm not sure I could handle being away from DS that long!
Hmm...do you have a computer? Can you set up skype visits with your daughter a few times a week? Can you mail her letters for your mom to read or pictures?
Skype is a good idea.
I can't imagine how much you must miss your little girl.

Military always skypes with their extended families. Are you able to set something like this up?

no i cant im 6 hours away from her and mymom wont drive here to bring her says its too much gas even for once a month
Perhaps you can ask for some leave? Is that possible? How long is this training? Other than calling or skype there's really no other way to communicate without technology or until you can physically get away from your base.
i can but id have to pay for transportation so im stuck on that part. it wouldnt be as bad if my mom knew how to communicate better and work on it with me but she dont and its fustrating
Scared to get out of my comfort zone
