i know were you are comming from i to have been having severe problems with debt, and i to like to give my children what they need, but the advice from almostangela and faryerody sounds like good advice, last year i was spending the minium amount on food so i could feed the six of us and pack 3 of with packed lunches. i bought the shop own brands of food and only spent an average of 30 pounds a week , budgeting does work, i dont share any of my problems with my brother, or my husbands family because of some the reasons you give,
good luck
