What should one say or do to help a family who is going through difficult times? For me, this is something I do every day, as my book has been gifted to so many organizations and sold to numerous people for this purpose. My husband and I personally donate or gift money to families, but more important than money is being there for people. Be there to listen but remember to be objective when giving advice. Sometimes people can solve their own issues just by venting, asking questions and taking small pieces of advice from each person. Be there to help by letting others know you can help take on chores allowing them to work on their difficulties. Let them know you are there but can be invisible if they need that as well. Everyone is different so you need to feel out what they are willing to accept from you. I found many times listening is the key to helping. People need to verbally share to come up with solutions. Let me know how you like to help others going through difficult situations.
