Easter holidays seem to be lasting forever and I don't get paid until tomorrow 🙃.

It's my youngest son's 4th birthday in May and all he's asked for is to go and see the animals in the zoo. I've just looked at Chester zoo and they want £104 for 2 adults and a child. Knowsley safari park want almost £80, how are parents supposed to afford that along with a birthday present? It makes me feel utterly useless that I can't give him the only thing he's asked for.

There's absolutely no way I can take him on my own due to my struggles with Audhd and anxiety. So need another adult too. Even the local farms are now charging over 40 for a day ticket.

I'm literally looking around my house for anything of value I can sell to give him the birthday he deserves. Unfortunately I have nothing of value 😕
