This woman obviously hasn’t heard of the new scam. Women foster their daughters’ children and get paid by the state for doing so. One such woman was making over a $100,000 a year for fostering her daughters’ children. She said her daughter was like an ATM.
How about single mothers with no father in the picture?
Don’t expect an improvement in society with grandparents screwing up two generations on the taxpayers’ dime.
Grandmother and grandchild. The middle people are missing.
What about the next generation? Is the missing mother going to show up and care of the children of these children?
I don’t think so.
We are not raising our grandson but kind of co-parenting. We moved next door to them to help. DIL is very ill and in palliative care. Our grandson has severe autism, on a scale of 0 to 26 he is rated a 25. There is no way, no matter how great a parent you are that you can handle this situation without help.
My Grandson moved in with us at age 1 month. That was almost 3 years ago.
Never planned on raising a grandchild. Life happens.
Wouldn’t change it.
