I have a dcf that I have been doing business with a little over two years. The parents are divorced. Mom recently asked me if I would be willing to take government assisted payments. Currently I am only private pay..
DCM told me that she is working a temp job and it will end in a few weeks. So she will pull the kids from care. OK, so now what.
she then tells me, well since I will be on unemployment, I won't need childcare. During this time I will live off of that money and child support, and then will apply for every government benefit that I am ENTITLED to due to my low income....
UGH....then she goes on to say, oh don't worry, the girls will be back in the fall, by that time I should have full assistance for childcare and whatever that does not cover their dad will...................
UGH. what would you say to this mom....there is no way that I am going to help someone if they are going to do something like this...this just seems sooooooo wrong to me....BUT at the same time I blame our assistance system too. It seems like they make it way to easy to take advantage of it....
