Hey there,
Lets just get this out of te way,
What is a Curse?:
A curse is the opposite of a blessing: whereas a blessing is a pronouncement of good fortune because one is initiated into God’s plans, a curse is a pronouncement of ill fortune because one opposes God’s plans. God may curse a person or a whole nation because of their opposition to God’s will. A priest may curse someone for violating God’s laws. In general, the same people with the authority to bless also have the authority to curse.
Types of Curses:
In the Bible, three different Hebrew words are translated as “curse.” The most common is a ritualistic formulation which described as “cursed” those who violate community standards defined by God and tradition. Slightly less common is a word used to invoke evil against anyone who violates a contract or oath. Finally there are curses which are invoked simply to wish someone ill will, like cursing a neighbor in an argument.
What is the Purpose of a Curse?:
Cursing can be found in most if not all religious traditions around the world. Although the content of these curses may vary, the purpose of curses seems to be remarkably consistent: enforcement of law, assertion of doctrinal orthodoxy, assurance of community stability, harassment of enemies, moral teaching, protection of sacred places or objects, and so forth.
Cursing as a Speech Act:
A curse communicates information, for example about a person’s social or religious status, but more importantly it is a “speech act,” which means that it performs a function. When a minister says to a couple, “I now pronounce you man and wife,” he isn’t just communicating something, he is changing the social status of the people before him. Similarly, a curse is a deed which requires an authoritative figure performing the deed and acceptance of this authority by those hearing it.
Curse and Christianity:
Although the precise term isn’t generally used in the Christian context, the concept plays a central role in Christian theology. According to Jewish tradition, Adam and Eve are cursed by God for their disobedience. All of humanity, according to Christian tradition, is thus cursed with Original Sin. Jesus, in turn, takes this curse on himself in order to redeem humanity.
Cursing as a Sign of Weakness:
A “curse” is not something which is issued by someone with military, political, or physical power over the person being cursed. Someone with that sort of power will almost always use it when seeking to maintain order or punish. Curses are used by those without significant social power or who simply lack power over those they wish to curse (such as a stronger military enemy)

Go to a new age store or someone that sells majick supplies, or you can order it online, some oil recomended for removing curses or uncrossing people. On a full moon take a black candle, write on the candle, like with a toothpick, something like "abolish the curse" (and the family's name) and what it is that you want to get rid of. Repeat these words as you are writing them. Rub the candle with the oil then burn the candle on all the way down until it is a pile of wax. Meditate on these words for about 20 or 30 minutes while the candle is burning. Then let if finish burning out Take the remaining wax and drive to some place that you normally do not go. Some place that you will not be driving by every day so you won't be thinking about it every time you go by and throw it out. Or if you know who cursed you, through it in their yard.

We have a strange money curse where no matter how honest we work we can never get ahead money wise without something to F it all up but at the same time we must have some kind of spiritual protection because we have never been out on the streets though we have been close in a scary way in ways that aren't our fault.

Try to locate the source. Did an ancestor do wrong? or let wrong be done?
You can amend the wrong by publishing the truth.
If you can't locate the source or the descendants of the original curse, through prayers of protection, call out to the offended and say something like,"There can be no Peace for you until there is release.
Let the innocent be free, I forgive you, forgive me."
The only reason for the rhyme is to make it easier to repeat. Use your own words and be sure you are innocent of the matter and call out for the protection of your young ones, enough is enough.

Put a line of salt in front of every entrance of your home, true evil cannot cross it. It will help for a short term solution.
I'm not sure what kind of curse haunts you, with more information I could help more. You may want to try http://www.lipstickmystic.com/articles/articles031805.html that article and the rest of the site could point you in the right direction

you could get in touch with the local Wiccan community, see if someone will come and sage your home and everyone in it.
Or you can just not believe in or give any mind to the curse. To believe in it is to give it power. It has no power over you if you don't believe.

if you are telling the truth then there is really nothing you can do. it seems like you are gonna have to prepare for the worst, unless you mix up some potions and vanquish some demons, ok maybe not demons, but you are gonna have to face something big and mean to get rid of the curse. face your fears and fight them, that should get rid of the curse for ya, i think.

I think for you to get help from anyone you would have to explain much more.
you could try this when the moon is full gather your family (10;45 pm) and all over you repeat over and over Remove this curse from our family..try that and see how that works.

Stop believing in curses, take responsibility for your own actions, and the curse will be removed.
