It just makes me sad. We are by no means wealthy, but if I need a cheese grater or a kitchen thermometer, I just buy the damn thing. I don't need a wal-mart gift card or my birthday to come to get everyday kitchen items. It's just sad.
Things are really good, we're having another baby in early April, so that's exciting. Maggie saw a newborn in the waiting room at the midwife's office today and she got very excited. Hopefully that's how she'll feel about her new brother or sister. Yes, making out is a coping technique I read about in a natural childbirth book, I'd rather not.
Buddha, normally I'd agree with you, but that's how that WANT it. So to me, that's totally different. I do feel bad for the kids, what with the sleeping on a mattress under the crib and cramming numerous siblings in one bedroom.

[i]Buddha, normally I'd agree with you, but that's how that WANT it. So to me, that's totally different. I do feel bad for the kids, what with the sleeping on a mattress under the crib and cramming numerous siblings in one bedroom. [/i] You're probably right, but it still just makes me aingsty. Then again, I would not be willingly having kids with that small of an income.
Dish Strainer - It's bright red and the rest of the room is neutrals. It goes with the kitchen decor in our old apartmentI guess red doesn't go with "Tupperware gray."
[i]How do they even have internet with that low of an income? [/i] I may be remembering incorrectly, but didn't they justify it because they don't have cable, and he needed his fox news?
CPS is probably too busy responding to parents who abuse their children or can't feed/clothe or provide shelter at all for them. She isn't abusing her kids. She's living way below poverty level while managing to feed her kids meals and put a roof over their head. not my bag and I feel sorry for the kids, but it isn't a life threatening sitch.
I still don't know how CPS has not been called in on them Why? I haven't read much, but is there something abusive happening? This isn't the crazy beat the toddler until he says "hi mommy" blog is it?
The thing that really bothers me about the kids is the sleeping situation. I think in a lot of states it would be illegal. But no, they're not being abused. They're eating, they have (state provided) insurance for emergencies. Though it does bother me that they consider dental treatment a luxury. Not the worst situation by far.
It was the sleeping situation that would cause concern to me. I was under the impression that children had to have beds in order to be in a non neglected home.
Even the bed thing to me would be a stretch. I don't know. I agree it is not right, but I am sure there are tons of people like this, only they don't blog.
