FYI: BABIES/CHILDREN COST MONEY!!!!
Go ahead and think I am a bitch, it's okay, lots of other people think I am and after this post you probably will too. But let's be real, having children cost money. With that said, how do you feel about families on government assistance? I am all for the services that are out there for the needy. But what I cannot stand are the lazy ass individuals that are out there milking the system for all it's worth.
I have read about/ seen many a families where both parents are in school and don't work or only one parent works part-time and they have one child and decide to have another. Now, I know it isn't any of my beeswax how other families work, but I find it totally irresponsible how a family like this operates. This family of three, soon to be four receives all kinds of assistance and can't pay their bills. Why on earth would you intentially bring another child into this world when you can't hardly afford the one you have or pay your bills or afford to put food on the table? It blows me away.
Once upon a time I felt sorry for people like this, but not anymore. My husband works his arse off to provide for our family. We but our chops off budgeting and saving for emergencies and our future. We struggle, but we make it work. We also know that our wallets (or our minds for that matter) cannot handle a fourth child.
Ok, I am done. I am just sick and tired of seeing people take advantage of the system.

I agree. We are keeping our family at one child (at least for now) because we can afford to give one child everything that she needs, ON OUR OWN. Children deserve a stable environment where they can be confident that their needs will be met. If you're already relying on others to meet those needs, it's entirely irresponsible to ADD to that.
ReplyDeleteI agree! I do NOT mind at all that I pay taxes that in turn give out food stamps and aid to truly needy families. Ones that are trying to help themselves but just need a step up. What I do mind however, is the LAZY ASS ones who don't even TRY to help themselves. They do not look for jobs, the do not educate themselves to find jobs, they do not give back they just take take take and have more and more and more kids to stay in the system!!! I am so fed up with it, I can't tell you how some of the stories I have been witnessing lately have made my blood boil and twisted my panties in a knot!!!
