my mom is single with three kids, and we have financial problems. My father passed away 5 years ago and he used to bring in the money and my mom was the housewife, she never had a legit job until after his death (she used to do babysitting, clothes tailoring at home). After he passed away, my mother has been working minimum wage jobs up until NOW. i really hate it, how much little money we have for our selves. We live in a two bedroom apartment, which is okay for a family of four but it is not okay when you rent one room to a roomate, so thats extra cash. So basically we all share one bedroom. And my mom works very hard, vary vary hard to support our family. But she's not going anywhere. She's not much educated: high school diploma, moderate at speaking english (my parents are foreign) and moderate computer skills. I try to help her out as much as possible. Infact, i do alotta things that a regular mom would usually do for me (cook my own food, laundry, groceries, cleaning all that). I understand she is working hard so i dont ask her to buy me much. mostly everything i buy for my self is with my own money, including clothes. I do summer jobs and tuturing. i dont bring in enought money to help my mom with bills. But the thing is im only 15 years old. I know when I turn 16 I will get a job, after school and weekends hopefully. But for now, im really looking for a BETTER job for my mother. She worked at a daycare for 4 years and still hasnt got a raise and previously she worked as a cashier. But she was always paid minimum wage. I know my mom is depending on me. I'm the oldest child and she expects me to help her out when i turn 18 so she can take a break from her hard life. Are there better jobs available for her? Where can I look for better jobs for her? Should she take certain classes so she can FIND better jobs? Please, I really need your help, because i'm just trying to help my mom out and i barely know anything about the job world and neither does she. What should I do? What should i do to help my mom out? Will helping her improve her english and computer skills give her benefits in finding better jobs? <--what kind of jobs should i help her apply to? help me out and thank you
we live in NYC btw if that helps :)

Answer
When it comes to finding ways to earn money, consider a Denver (Colorado, USA), a woman that lost her upper management job. She started a simple business picking up dog droppings that led to earnings of over $75,000 a year, working outside, setting her own hours, and could be done using a bicycle as transportation. It is also something a child age 10 and up can do alone, an adult can do, or a whole family can do together. This article describes how.

In this economy, you need to think outside box. Companies are refusing to take applications from the unemployed resulting in many giving up.
