1. She paid part of the rent with her government assistance money for this month. So it wouldn't be fair to just throw her out before the month is up.

2. We have a custody case open on our mutual son that hasn't been resolved yet. She is agreeing to give me joint physical custody but she hasn't brought the written response to court yet.

3. I've got a big heart...she has nowhere to go. I don't want her son to be on the street.

4. We might work things out, so far it doesn't look good.

I'm seriously considering renting a room from someone...at least until she can find a place to go. Once she leaves my mother's, I can move back in and that will save me a lot of much needed cash.

I saw some pretty good deals on Craigslist.
