I have a friend, a single mom with multiple kids. It seems to me, and my 11 year old has even noticed, that she has it pretty good, while his dad is working two jobs to allow up to do things. Because she is lower income, (and she has a colledge degree, just won't change jobs becasue she doesn't want to work any weekends), her kids get to go to YMCA camp each week for the full summer, she recieves food assistance, rent assistance, even clothes for the kids for free. If I were to try and send my kids to Y camp each week it would be about 340 a week for the three of them! But since she chooses not to work more, it is free for her. I think this sucks. Is anyone with me? It is like she gets rewarded for not working. (And the med assisting degree was free also thanks to the government.)
