Work-at-home ideas for my sis

One of my older sisters (46) raised her kids, then went back to school to become a special ed teacher. Unfortunately, after a few years she is finding that because of some physical disabilities she's acquired lately (most of them stemming from old injuries and also being in an accident with a drunk driver), she cannot handle either the stress or the physical pain of what she is doing full time, and the school system won't allow part-time teachers. She wants to (needs to, actually) contribute to the family finances, though.

So, does anyone have any ideas of good work-at-home jobs? Especially great would be flexible ones so that she could skip a day if she were in a lot of pain on a particular day, but mainly she thinks it's the mental stress that really is making her current career hard on her.

there are lots of companies she could rep for. that help make supplemental income. and with those you set your own hours. PM or email me i can give you some names of them if you want that is

I feel for your sis. I have a suggestion for her to make money. Since TCS really frowns on advertising here, I suggest you send me a private email and I can tell you all about it.

teheheh i sent her my link too

Can she get involved in curriculum development. Maybe she could use her knowledge to write books etc. to help teachers in this area.

My sister started a small catering business. She cooked meals for elderly and shut in people. It was very rewarding, she enabled people to keep their independence far longer than they would have been able to otherwise. They no longer had to get out to the grocery store, or manage stuff in the kitchen.

She made dinners, and froze them, and delivered one day a week. She got her clients through contacts at her church. And then word spread through the retirement communities. She would get calls all the time "Are you the girl who cooks for seniors?"
