Daycare Ad

My mom on assistance: has no car and rides the bus, has not had a haircut for herself in a year, her food stamp money often runs out with 7 to 10 days left in the month, ALWAYS barely makes rent, has no cell, Tv, computer. She works and does her best every day to make sure the kids are clean, happy and not too hungry. She waits in line every other day to get free bread.
I just scratch my head at these tales of women raking in tons of cash and having nice cars and toys from "living well" on assistance. I just have never once seen that.:confused:

I've seen it. But I agree that there are lots that are stuck in the same situation as your family. Assistance here is easier to get if you don't work. And the people at the assistance offices even tell people "you'd be better off if you don't work then we can help you"

nannyde isnt the only one who lives in a state that gives so much out just listen to what tnis lady gets every month for benefits.

She didn't mention the BIGGIE ... health insurance for 5 people. Medical, dental, prescription, and vision.

I too have not seen people "living large" on assistance. I've only seen single moms struggling to make it. I understand that there are people who abuse the system but I think believing they are the majority is more of an urban legend.

Found this mom looking for Childcare and had to share:



My husband and I have four handsome boys we are being childcare for, as its time for mommy to get a job now that we have baby #5 on the way. I want them all in the same daycare! I will not separate them. & you must be able to watch my baby.. Must be willing to accept state pay, since we can't afford $125/week/child. That would be just one of our paychecks! This will possibly turn into a nanny job since I would rather know how my children are being cared for.. I'll be filling paper work out on Monday for state assistance. I would also prefer you not have any children as you'll be more concerned for them than mine... If interested in setting an interview & meeting them please contact me via email. Make subject line "4 boys+1" so I know your real & not spam. Thanks!

The real problems with this is that 1. She can't afford to pay, and isn't approved for state assistance (is about to apply) 2. She doesn't have a job lined up. So, you are just supposed to wait until/ if she needs it??
And then with baby #5 on the way, I'm sure she will be taking some time off (that is if she has found a job by that time).

Roughly 1/2 of my clients in the last 10 years have been on assistance and out of those every single one afforded luxuries that I can't afford. The only clients I've had who were actually struggling in 10 years have been the parents who made just a little more than what's allowed to get assistance but not enough to make it on their own.
