School clothes for 4 and 5 year old boys, and 6 year old girl!

Granted by Heroes: latraveler
Times are hard for everyone. jobs are scarce, and I am finding myself in need of school clothes for my kids. I need help. I am so frustrated with myself because I cannot provide the things my kids need. They deserve so much better. I have been out searching for jobs, but it's impossible without a vehicle, and of course the job market the way it is. Frustrating needless to say! If anyone can help me get some clothes for my kids I would really appreciate it!

Kathryn is 6 years old. She needs mainly jeans, size 6/7 and shirts size small/medium. Socks are also needed!

Dylan is 5 years old. He needs everything! He grows so fast! He is in size 5/6 slim pants, (still needs a belt!) shirts he's in a 5/6. He needs socks and underwear as well.

Caleb is 4 years old. He needs size 4/5 pants. shirts size 5. He needs socks and underwear as well. He is autistic so when his clothes start to fray, he picks at it until there is nothing left!

It seems so silly that things I took for granted sure would be nice right about now. Like not having to worry about clothes for your kids and such. I am in this bind because I am going through a divorce. Their father refuses to help with clothing and such. Will not pay child support, etc. Of course he has no job to help support them either. I am so tired of having to beg for shampoo and dishsoap. Even things like trashbags! I hate asking for handouts of any kind. But I cant watch my kids suffer anymore. their clothes are too small, and it's killing me watching this. This is my last hope. I don't know what I will do if I can help them with at least this. Their birthdays are already going to be pretty bad with no money. all their birthdays are in November.
Sorry this is so long. If anyone can help with clothes I would really appreciate it! They dont have to be new, gently used works just as well! Thank you for reading, I appreciate any help!

It's a bit long because its their clothes, and toys for their birthdays and christmas!

@ Skinnydip- My ex is suicidal and its come to the point that I know if I go after him for child support he wont get a job, and if he ends up with a warrent he would kill himself. As much as I cant stand the man, I couldn't handle that on my conscience. Maybe I am too soft, I don't know. I am hoping that soon I can get a job! I have been putting in applications right and left. I left nursing school to take care of the kids when he and I split. So thats out. Once I get a new vehicle I will be able to go back and finish my schooling. I have so many plans, but they seem so out of reach right now. I will keep everyone updated! Again, thank you all for the support and for reading my wish!

You really should file for court ordered support, if anything to at least hold him accountable for your children. When my ex husband abandon his family my first thought was to just completely cut him from our lives but then I decided I wanted my children to know that at least I did everything within my power to provide for them. You will be surprised how motivating it can be for a non-custodial parent to work and pay support when warrants are issued for their arrest and all licenses are revoked. Even if I never saw a dime for my children...at least they know that I did everything humanly possible to attempt to get them everything they deserve.

Thank you all! and Yes mommie817 I can make a wishlist. I wasn't thinking clearly last night, I was very depressed when I posted this otherwise there would have already been one made! As soon as the kids head off to school it will be the first thing I do! Thank you all for the well wishes! Bratwkidz If I thought taking him to court would do any good at all believe me I would! But the man hasnt had a job in 3 years- which is one reason I left him. He has no motivation, and the only reason I havent taken him to court is because I do want the kids to have a relationship with their dad (although why I'm not sure!) Thank you all, will post the walmart wishlist in the next few hours!

Hope your heroes find you in your time of need :) Take daddio to court and make him pay. If he enjoyed making them, he should be forced to reap what he sowed and take care of them. Good luck and many blessings
