What's the best way to support my single mother friend?

One of my friends is a single mother, and she's having a hard time with three kids. She's in another state, and I can't give her money. I feel like I can't really do a whole lot that is helpful. How can I help her and her kids without overextending myself or feeling totally helpless?

I'm going to assume that this "friend" is super hot and you have the hots for her..

Her plight is not your concern..

I knew a hot blue eyed blond just like her and (with three kids too) and she'd tell dudes all sorts of sob stories and she was basicly a con woman ..

I don't know how well you know this person but I'm just going to assume that you Don't really know her at all and she's just scamming you.

Her plight is not your concern... I'm sure there's lots of singles women in your own town who need help more than she does..

She's not your friend.. Just a hot con artist.

That's my opinion of the matter anyway..
