You may want to look into filing bankruptcy. That may be an option for you.
You could find some kind of work, even if part time or if the kids' father is alive,get some child support or both and also look to the driver of your car for some help. . Usually, the insurer does not care about the amount as long as there is a plan. The last thing that you want is to be an unemployed mother of three without a driver's license.
