Look at the note this women at this link shares... It made me gasp... Food shortage requires that   
   
she eats one meal a day so her two children have enough to eat....

That woman looks like she could skip some of those meals, too.  Seriously, most days I eat only one meal per day.

1. I did that for years.
   
Years.

You can shovel in a lot of calories in one meal.

10. Thank you, but nothing more than others live with daily
   
and I was grateful to have what we did.

Never thought in a million years I would end up raising that child, or any child, alone.

One reason I advocate for WIC every chance I get. I don't even want to think where we would have been without it.

Now I'm an employer, with 16 people I'm responsible for, and lots more outside our company who depend on us. It still feels a little similar.

Aloha!

My problem with WIC and other welfare programs is that they don't require naming the baby daddies.

I eat one meal a day.  Right now I'm not very active and don't need the calories.

I also raised 2 children essentially alone while working full time without government aid of any kind.  No free or reduced school lunches, none of that.  If a job wasn't working out for me I applied for others until I got a new one.  I didn't just quit - I had responsibilities that were mine.  I also never took time off work, those few vacation and sick days were precious and had to be saved for use in caring for my children, to go hold a sign with a group of other useless eaters.

I eat one meal a day.  Lunch.  No appetite in the morning, and too damn tired at night.  What's the big shocker?   Those people with the sad tales working their way around the internet are real pieces of work.  So many of them are bitching about huge student loans.  Like they never had to sign on the dotted line for them.  They never stopped to think about payback on investment, but merrily continued on in Womyn's or Ethnic Studies.  I'll tell you what radical change we need....it's in the universities.

I normally only eat one meal a day, DUmpmonkies. Am I the 99%? Nah, screw that, I like being in the minority.

BTW, why are you idiots oppressing us minorities? Don't make me call the ACLU, damnit!

It's what parents are supposed to do.

If you don't like your situation, change it. Stop blaming everybody else or looking for a handout to help you.
Let nothing trouble you,
Let nothing frighten you.

God never changes.

When it comes to children, I want them fed.  I don't give a shit about the parent's but I want the children to be fed and not ever experience hunger.

I do support WIC because I don't want children to go hungry.  They are not responsible for their parents mistakes.  But, reminder for the DUmmies, oatmeal is about 10 cents a serving and it keeps you feeling full.  I'm always amazed that when money it tight people don't buy more oatmeal.

She eats one meal a day - probably a 1,600 calorie take-out from McDonalds.  I eat three meals a day and have a snack, and I hit about 1,600 calories when I'm cutting.  So what, lady?

I'm not saying that the children shouldn't be fed, hookers are not known for keeping their children. Pregnancy interferes with their work for too long and most make sure they never get pregnant.  If a woman knows who the father is, the state should have recourse to pursue the father for support.

That happens in the case of divorce and child support, so why not with unwed mothers and welfare?

When my Mom was first divorced from my Dad, she barely ate one meal a day, to make sure my brother and I had three.  It was rough going those first few years, I see that now in retrospect, but didn't know it at the time.  We didn't have a TV, and our presents were school clothes and pajamas for Christmas and our Birthday.  She qualified for WIC but didn't get it because she was too proud, so we ate ALOT of eggs and pancakes.  Special birthday treat was a trip to McDonalds for a double cheeseburger.  

This was in 77-80.  She said things turned around in 81, that was when we got a TV, and special birthday treats became a steak dinner.  

That message was not lost on me.

I grew up the same way.  In fact, this past weekend, I shot a doe and a turkey with my bow.  I'll have about 35 pounds of lean ground meat, some backstraps, and two big turkey breasts to eat.  My wife doesn't like wild game to eat, but if times were hard, this would last our family a month.

Exactly.  Either she's lying about the number of meals, or she hasn't been eating one meal a day for more than a month, or she eats one BIG meal per day.  Anything else, and she'd not be a fatass.

That's the way it was when I was a kid. The garden provided most of the vegetables all year long through freezing and canning.  We also fished a lot and always had frozen fish, if no other meat.

These so-minded people go on and on about how it takes a village to raise a child, yet instead of being proactive and seeking help, such as a neighbor to sit while she gets a second job, or delivering papers, or checking out soup or bread kitchens, etc, she chooses to use her digital camera and internet to post a useless photo whining about ****all. 

This pisses me off to no end.
