I went to U-Rock with Kathy...i'm proud of you! Keep going! and for those of you saying this happens because women have kids out of "wedlock" well screw all of you because I know plenty of people who were married when they had kids and are now in the same situation as kathy and other women so dont think your marriage makes you better than us...i'm a single mother who works and goes to college, i recently just graduated with my associates and am going to UW-Milwaukee for my bachelors and yeah I get state aid...thats what its there for..people who are using it as a stepping stone to make their lives better...so dont group us in with those women who make it a way of life (i.e. the one's who have their hair and nails done up with the name brand clothes) we dont all abuse the system. So the next time you think about going down to the jobcenter and telling them what you think, remember those of us who are using it appropriately! Sometimes you dont ask for this kind of situation, you just end up there and have to make the best of it!

ok slavetosociety i never once in my comment mentioned your name did I? and who in the hell said that I can afford the "riches" being on foodshare...I get grants to go to college and I work 2 jobs you righteous jerk and no where in my comment did I say my education makes me better than anyone else. My kids are getting a good education and have a good life and so do I. They may not go to a Catholic school that you just HAD to mention that your child goes to but we are happy...and I 100% agree that if you can afford the "riches" in life that you shouldnt be on state aid. But I dont see anything wrong with wanting to get a good education for myself to better the life of my children. You opened a can of worms, not me, because I wasnt even talking to you.
