CRA part deux? I see what you did there. Gonna need a LOT of paperwork to clean up that mess.
From the article: “There’s a broader social question here,” Greenlee said. “Why did we let it get this bad for so many PEOPLE?”
Why did WE let it get this bad for so many people??????? EXCUSE ME, WHEN DID IT BECOME OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO PAY OUT ALL WE’VE SAVED UP TO TAKE CARE OF IRRESPONSIBLE PEOPLE WHO MADE BAD DECISIONS IN LIFE??????? We have our own families/children/grandchildren in the car.
IT IS TIME FOR WAR ON THIS WOKE LIBERALS WHO TALK TO US LIKE THAT. THIS CAN NOT CONTINUE. WHERE IS/ARE THE MAN/MEN WHO MADE THOSE CHILDREN???? EITHER TAKE CARE OF HER OR HAVE YOUR TESTICLES CUT OFF AND SHOVED IN YOUR MOUTH (Vietnam).
How did she aquire 6 babies, and why is that MY financial responsibility? They ain’t my kids.
At no point does she or any of the housing advocates address personal responsibility. Instead she complained that her children are the future and should be the city of Glendale’s priority.
The comments on Yahoo are scathing.
We all know if a breadwinner husband or father had died, it would have been added to the propagandist “woe is me” tale because of high sympathy points but most comments notice there’s no mention of any of the sperm donors for her five, now six, kids.
Stuff happens out of people’s control or capacity to cope but her situation is not one to build public policy around and makes for a foolish article without proper analysis of what she did and is doing in her life and the danger she’s put all these kids in.
I will say I always found the San Diego model where there’s typically a twelve year wait for assistance to be appalling. There was virtually no assistance for men, for example, unless they were addicts. People who have no one should be a high priority—the article mentions a voucher-winning single woman from CA more than once as if she should just find a man to shack up with. Getting her housed may be cheaper in the long run than if she follows the path of the primary storyline and becomes a baby factory.
Teaching women to have more children they can’t care for is not a recipe for sound public policy. This is only going to incentivize actions that strain resources and harm the other children. I am almost at the point of saying child welfare services should be looking at this woman’s case closely because it’s not clear she’s acting in their best interests.
The Left would say the world owes her a living because of her womb and it’s no ones place to judge her decisions even if we’re paying for the consequences not just in section 8 housing, wic, snap/ food stamps but through the inevitable outcomes in the mental, physical and emotional well-being of her five six kids when they mature. Generational dependence exists and we cannot depend on government schools to teach the necessary skills to break the cycle.
She has such a delusional reaction there, blaming Glendale for not picking her in a random lottery. Never asked is, “What did she do?” The obvious answer is she got pregnant with baby number six because she needed another homeless child in her care and the entire article treats this as perfectly acceptable and normal.
I was saddened, so I gave them katie hobbs’ address.
This is the democrat way! In this country and in other countries. The more kids, the greater the government handout, in this rat infested party!
“The article makes zero mention of their father”
Actually: “The article makes zero mention of their FATHERS”
Doubt she knows any of the fathers. . .
Baby daddies drop by about the time the ebt cards are loaded for the month.
I suggest they start a brothel for these “mothers” to work in. Evidently they are good at what they do. There they could make enough money to feed and house the brats.
You mean give mortgages to people who can’t pay them back? What could go wrong?
