The day my credit card got declined at the grocery store in front of my kids
I was at the Walmart in Fayetteville, NC last spring with a cart full of food. The total came to $187 and some change, which was more than I had in my account because I forgot about an auto-pay that hit earlier. The card got declined right there at the register with my two kids watching. I had to tell the cash to hold the cart while I walked out to my car and called my mom to borrow $200. She transferred it in like 10 minutes but it was the longest 10 minutes of my life. Has anyone else had that moment where you just feel like a total failure as a parent?

187 bucks for groceries at Walmart is barely failing, that's just good budgeting.
