Meet--Emily and her husband live in a hotel near St Louis with their 4 kids and another one on the way. When we walked in Emily was giving her son a "time out" by sending him to the bathroom. There is no other room. There is no privacy. My heart broke while visiting with Emily and her children. You can feel the nonstop stress this young mother must experience.
Emily's husband lost his job. They then bounced around family until their car broke down and they ended up at this hotel. That was almost a year ago.
Living in weekly rate hotels often becomes a strap. It's $1,000 a month to live there, which is often just most people's paycheck. Emily's husband is now back working and they have been lucky enough to save up some money, yet with an eviction on their record - finding a house or apartment to rent can be challenging.
