My mom took us to some fairly poor levels when she was carting us around the UK, but she was very good at finding people to take us in and it never lasted very long. We did end up living with her parents for most of our childhood and they supported us, so we were very, very lucky. Without them, I dread to think what would have happened, but maybe she wouldn't have gone so far down the irresponsible route if she hadn't had the safety net they provided.
