Huntscreek Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 1st Congrats on the grandchild, you get to enjoy them and they go home LOL. Its a tough time in NY for jobs in most areas. Its nice the home is paid for so that's a plus, I hope things get better for your family. I have one that will be done with her Masters and will move out of state for work. I just sold my last home in NYS taking my youngest with me South, there is room for growth there. If they could do it now's a good time to sell and get out of NYS. Good Luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2012_taco Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Sorry to hear that, but they will get through it.(with your help). I was laid off when my second was born, I ended up starting my own business remodeling and thank God it all worked out. Good luck and enjoy the little one.

Deerthug Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Sorry to hear about the bad luck but congrats on the soon to be newborn. As my sister in law used to say (may she RIP), "Everything always works out in the end." Keep that in mind .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grampy Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 As long as everyone stays positive things seem to work out for the better. And it's the tough times that build you and make you stronger. Good thoughts sent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MountainHunter Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Wishing your sons family well! I am sure they will rise to the occasion but NYS does not make it easy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolc123 Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Our kids are 10 months apart in age and I lost my job right between their births. They are not kidding when they say it will make you stronger. I ended up with a far better job. Also, NY state has some "premo", health benefits for folks who find themselves in that seemingly unfortunate situation. The hospital stay didn't cost us a dime for our second daughter, and even the expensive baby formula was free for a while. It was nice to be home helping my wife with two infants as I don't know if she could have hacked it on her own. Keep the faith, because God will always work things out for the best, for those who love him. I am very thankful to have stayed in NY, where we have good hunting and fishing and scenery that are second to none. This past winter was a bit of a stretch but it looks like we made it thru now. It would take a lot more than that to force me into those sweltering hell-holes below the Mason-Dixon for anything more than a brief visit.
