The impact of economic difficulties on families
The impact experienced in terms of economic difficulties is currently being felt by the community and especially in the family, where the economic shortage is very influential and influences the wheels of family life, so that even all needs feel inadequate. This is indeed something that really makes us complain about this, especially as families today have many needs that must be met, from kitchen needs, children's education, and also several other needs,
Frankly, as the head of a family, and I work as a teacher who has a small income, I find it very difficult to meet my current living needs, especially since the prices of goods are currently soaring, and so many needs are difficult to fulfill.
Currently, I am also experiencing economic difficulties in the field of education, which I have to try to ensure my children's education runs smoothly, and currently there are many household needs that are really needed, but I always postpone them because I don't have enough money to fulfill my household needs.
IMPACT OF ECONOMIC DIFFICULTIES
Due to the many economic needs that I cannot fulfill completely and according to expectations, there are actually many impacts that arise in my family, which makes me dizzy due to the lack of money, I often experience chaos in the household, with many demands from my wife, so that I feel I'm under a lot of stress, especially with my children's educational needs at the end of the new school year, of course I have to pay a lot of expenses, even though my salary is not commensurate with my huge expenses.
There are many other impacts that I feel due to the current economic difficulties, including frequently being in arrears on electricity and water bills, so I always have to be really frugal so that things that I don't want don't happen, such as cutting off electricity when I'm in arrears.
In this case, I can only try by doing several small businesses to survive the economy and also the need for food and school costs for children is very large, I happen to have a small business in the livestock sector, I think this can help me a little in overcoming the economic difficulties that I am facing. natural of course.
It's true that living in my country is full of difficulties, especially having a low monthly salary that feels very inadequate, especially with the prices of goods and necessities no longer affordable with people's current income.
CONCLUSION
The impact of economic difficulties really makes our minds burdened, because economic difficulties will actually affect the development of family life, quite a few children drop out of school because of their family's economic difficulties, and there are also many cases that arise due to economic difficulties.

Upvoted. Thank You for sending some of your rewards to @null. It will make Steem stronger.
Thank you for participating in the Steemit Engagement Challenge Season 17 in the Steem kids and parents Community.
Families have participated in this competition presenting some of the effects of economic difficulties. Your points are really excellent. You have shared some of the financial problems the family is experiencing. Love your post. A quality article. I wish you all the best.
Thank you very much, I hope this article can be useful
I truly don't know how families can survive on a single income these days. I look at my friends and family, and both husbands and wives work.
Times are tough, that is for sure.
But your children's education is definitely a priority, as it is their ticket to a better life.
I wish you all the best, not only for the contest but also for what you are going through.
PS: Thank you for the invitation. I have entered.
Thank you brother, maybe it is our obligation to provide good things in the family, so I have to try hard
My heart is melting for you because I have full respect for teachers and here teacher's future and present is not secured. Income is low but still you are fighting with situation and this time I am getting positive vibes around the world that how people are giving their best shot and fighting with situation and it is inspiration for me
very true and I agree with your opinion, that's life
We have to learn online skills and find work which is based in online because offline work and market will close in coming next 5-10 years and economics system will be more worst. We have to pull up our socks and get ready for future
Greetings,
This economic meltdown has made the income of workers become useless in the sight of billings. Imagine billing becoming greater than the income itself.
How can an employee spend 70% of his or her income on Transportation. At this point, what will that individual have to survive? I hope this issue should be looked into thoroughly. Good luck on your entry.
The story is the same for many of us from the emerging economies. All we need to do is try as much as possible to have multiple streams of income to help combat this ugly trend. Just as you've rightly done by venturing into small business. Good luck twithyour endeavors and entry.
