Ive never seen the show, or care to see the show etc, Ive read a bit about them , dont know much about their past, except she was married at 17 and doesn't prolong breast feeding her kids and they are all named with the letter "J"

I have no idea if they were on welfare and if they were they seem to find a way to get off of it, which is what welfare is suppose to be, a temporary system of support until you get on your feet.

So if they were on welfare and its obvious they got off then it worked the way it supposed to work

nothing sinister going on there viper, so if that is the case then this is a good case of how welfare is suppose to work.

I have found that kids are the best form of birth contol. Once you have them, it leaves no time for a social life. That's why I got my 2nd husband from work.

and yet some single moms makes having a social life a priority because they believe they are entitled to have a social life, they will tell you they need a break or "adult time".

to that I say B.S. if you're the sole caregiver your child's well being is front and center, not your social life.

I think single mom particularly the ones on welfare and doesn't want to work and says they need Adult time is so selfish.

Just for the record, the Duggars were not on welfare.

And the poster who referred to the mothers vagina as a clown car is just tasteless and ridiculous .

SMH.

so single moms in need of financial help of any kind are 'selfish' to ever do ANYTHING but parent and struggle? wow ... just wow.

if a single mom on welfare is more concerned about dating and her social life then yeah , its a problem.

agreed. if she is MORE concerned.

but like others, single moms can have multiple concerns simultaneously.

I didn't say she doesn't have multiple concerns, I only said if her only concern is her social life.

I was focused on working ot to make end meet and get ahead. After working 48-60 hours a week, my kids needed my attention.
I had coworkers who partied and rarely saw their kids.

I know people who work and rarely see their kids, or can only give them 'leftover' effort and energy when they do.

BALANCE.

Parenting is tough. On Saturdays I would go in at 4am so I could go home at lunch to be able to take them to the pool. I was tired by lunch time and it might have been leftover energy but the kids needed me to support then. People who don't want to make sacrifices for their kids shouldn't have them.

I never said they were on welfare. I said they were fed off the government tit.

Pop Quiz: Where do County Commissioners paychecks come from?

They were fed through the hard work of a man and a woman.

Pop Quiz, what is the difference between working for the government receiving a paycheque vs collecting an unearned payment from the tax payers from the government in the form of Welfare.

Guess what? Both checks still look like this.


Now, if he were a legitimate farmer, and had is son out in the back north 40, instead of in bed with his sister, or if you are running a mechanics shop out in the barn, you might have a legitimate point.

My own former US Sen. Rick Santorum, has seven brats of his own that he supported off the US government, and its lobbyists. Now that he's a "former", he whores himself out to Fox news, and CNN, to keep making those college tuitions.

They say, that once you open a can of worms, you always need a bigger can to get them all back in.

making sh_it up again Viper,
between deflections and making crap up is why most of us believes the loony left cannot be taken seriously.

I was a single parent. After divorce, however, my Ex was a hard worker so I got child support and I got a job.

You need to work if possible . Meaning you're not disabled.

Don't live off hard working tax payers money!!!

Toody, and I bet your work ethic and ex husband work ethic rubbed off on your kids too.

Are you claiming that government checks DON'T look like that?
