well she has a phone and a pc



Really? Did you email her and she said she owned a PC that is worth something? So she should get rid of her phone also? Seriously...go away if you don't want to help (and it's clear you don't) Chat Icon



I agree...don't help if you do not want to but please stop making ASSumptions Chat Icon

what i posted was my personal opinion.You dont have to tell people what they posted was ignorant..This is America..i have the right to my personal opinion.you dont have to take things personally.



It was ignorant. Not an opinion, more of a fact. Like Beth said, those two resources are key for getting a job and again, no one knows if the PC is hers. I'm done arguing with you, the thread doesn't need your negativity.

I do not think it is a matter of not agreeing...it is a matter of kicking someone when they are down...she needs help, some will choose to help, some won't...but let's stop making assumptions about her situation based on one post on CL Chat Icon

There is a woman who says she has 3 children and her DD turns 1 on Thursday. She just lost her job and is asking for donations of cake, clothes, toys, etc so that she can make her DD birthday special for her. She is wearing size 12 month clothes, but currently squeezing her into 9 months because she can't afford new clothes.

Pretty much the gist of it.

I wonder if she needs anything for herself- I have a nice Ann Taylor suit I don't need - I would be happy to donate it to her for interviews if she is short like me

Re: PLEASE READ: If this is for real I want to help!

I will defend Robin on this one. Sorry Ladies!

Maybe she spoke too soon. But I have also been burn with fake cries.

This lady could be legit but I think Robin was talking from a bad experience.

I went out to dinner for my Chat Icon so I'm sorry I didn't respond since I started the post.

I didn't mean to cause any drama - this just touched my heart. I said I wasn't sure if it was sincere because I posted the link before I spoke to her. I believe her to be sincere. If we can help - please FM summerrluvv for her address!

Re: PLEASE READ: If this is for real I want to help!

Reading her post gave me a lump in my throat. I honestly don't think it was made up. It sounded like a mother who loves her daughter more than anything needs help, that is how I am taking it...

If she had asked for cash donations I'd be skeptical. This sounded sincere and there are many many people out there like this woman going through the same heartache. It's sad and makes me really count my blessings. We are not having the easiest time financially either, but I still feel blessed...

I am SO cynical - but something about this made me think it was for real. That's why I posted it here!
