If they are hungry they may want to look into what the parents are ding with their food stamps? Many do sell them so they can have fun with the money while the kids are looked at as only there because of the aid they get for them.Schools give free lunches and food to go home over the weekend,city parks provide linch 5 days a week,places like the salvation army as well as many other places provide hot meals twice a day for anyone who walks in,food banks gvie food away and as menrioned prior there are also food stamps if they kids are hungry it is their parent’s fault.

My wife has a friend in Baltimore who sells her food stamps top buy gas and cigs. She feeds the kid the cheap Mac and cheese 3 times a day.

No,the kids aren’t, but the workers are.

The workers have to pay a court appointed child support amount, and it doesn’t change on a dime because one week they earn $400 and the next $125. They just have to pay a set amount.

So they end up owing, on the wrong side of the legal system and hungry to boot.

Dumb teenage mothers.

You can eat cheaply if you know how to cook.

Government should make them trade kids.

I know we've moved on to the debt situation now, but the answer to your probably rhetorical question is that, in large segments of the population, the only role the father serves is to provide sperm to fertilize the mother's ova. He fulfills no other recognizable paternal role.

This is not meant to be a joke. It's the simple truth.

Record number on food stamps.
Record number of obese people.

Coincidence? I think not.
