OK My mom just got fired because she had a blood clot in her lung and now can't do anything. My dads job dont pay enough. We have the bills and my dads ex-wife is a jerk. She makes us pay child support and now that my mom is not working we will only be able to pay her. Then we will have to hunt to get food. The bodem line. I dont know how to help her. I just wanna die. What can I doooooooooo? (link)

It is not fair for your parents to discuss these sort of problems in front of you. You are young so you don't see what the issue really is here. This is not your problem AT ALL. All families have to deal with this, it is a very common adult problem that adults are perfectly capable of handling themselves without unloading their stress on you. If you overheard these issues and they never actually discussed them with you (I certainly hope that is the case) that is different, but again, do not worry. I can not stress this enough honey, adults have many more options, more then you can imagine, for situations just like these and there is no reason for you to be concerned. The best thing you can do is to help your mother get better. If they do (and I really hope they are not this irresponsible) talk about this in front of you, then please tell them how much stress this is causing you. They really need to stop.
