My mother believes that my husband, Nathan, is a failure because he can’t provide for our family on his own. Whenever she calls, she asks with a smirk, “So, have you eaten your last loaf of bread yet, or is there still some left?” Does she not realize how hard we’re struggling? Currently, Nathan is the only one working in our family. Our little son, Dylan, has Down syndrome, adding emotional and financial strain to our daily lives.
