I have been in your shoes. You have nothing to be ashamed of. In fact, be proud of yourself. You have the most difficult job in the world. Being a single mom, working and school. Wow. You Rock. Without getting to much into religion (as it is against community guidelines) a true Christian should never judge another for what they do or dont have. That is all I can say on that matter.
As far as you being embarressed or your son being embarressed of you. I dont think that he is. The fact that he wants his friend to come over indicates to me that he is very comfortable with his surroundings. Keeping up with the "Jones's".......Been there done that also. In the end, the bottom line is, material possesions dont mean a thing. Strong family and love is the most important thing to teach your child.

Your a wonderful mother. Doing so much with yourself. Be proud. Hold your head high sweety. Your doing GREAT!!!!!
