Children are a good source of income, it would seem. Where I live, some people have babies just to get government assistance. It's pretty obvious that they don't care about thier kids because the little tykes are always running all over the dang place, far from thier parent's eyes, just ripe for a good old fashioned kidnapping.
 
My family was on food stamps and other government assistance when I was a little girl, and it always shamed me, but in light of my lack of success in the workforce, I wonder if it would be a good idea to have a couple of kids and get that sweet, sweet "paycheck" ?

    Sometimes I feel that I should pop out a couple kids to get ahead. lol. No, I'm kidding. Somewhat. I live in a small town and most of the girls my age have at least a couple! They get government assistance and have a nice life. Here I am,self employed and barely making enough to pay the bills. I vote, I give to charity, I give free services.. I am a model citizen....and I am suffering while all these girls my age are happy and gaining....from what?????

    My mom was a social worker (retired and aged now) but she struggled to put food on our table.  All the while, she was often working in homes where women were sitting back, smoking cigarettes and giving orders to her, while the kids were in school or running around in the way.  I can't say all the people she helped were like this--but I know she can tell you which ones were which.

    kids may get you more money, but they also cost you a lot of money, and time and energy and freedom. Your whole life changes, you come second,
    They also bring a whole lot of good things in to your life if your ready for the responsibility, but I think to bring a life in to this world just for money is naive and incredibly unfair on the child. just my opinion :-) xx
