‘You’ve got to get creative’
Joi Lansdowne started toilet training her daughter Kaleasi, who recently turned 2, after the enhanced monthly child tax credits ended, and spoke to CNN about what the conclusion of the payments meant for their family.
The mom of two said she could save money on diapers, which run her about $100 every 10 days or so, at a time when money is tighter.
“That is a huge expense,” said Lansdowne, 26, who said she’d hoped she’d keep receiving the $300 monthly payments this year.
“When you don’t have the funds to cover those things, you’ve got to get creative.”
