[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hope FA families are taking note.  No matter how good the rhetoric at your school, this is what people really think. Wow. [/quote]

Well, there is one way to avoid this... don't be a freeloading layabout SAHM. Get a darn job. Any mother can go get a part-time job at childcare facility. Or Target's always hiring -- $15/hr x 20 hrs week is $15,000.[/quote]

Then take out 35% for taxes, then medicaid, medicare, and all that and she's left with what, $8-9K.  Then, take out before and after school care and she'll end up owing money.[/quote]

$8-9K is absolute bear min, yet still likely more than the FA figure she’s complaining about! So instead of pointless Facebook posting all day & begging for a FA handout, she could stock Target shelves from 9AM-2PM. No need for a sitter, just work part-time during school hours. But of course it’s easier to make up crazy excuses and spin that she’d actually “lose” in the end for taking up a low-impact part-time gig. Because the SAHM is lazy and it’s fun to do nothing all day and play pretend that you’re wealthier than you are while scamming a school’s FA dept.[/quote]

I'm not getting into the whether she should work angle or not but as someone familiar with Target staffing, there is zero chance Target would hire someone for those hours consistently. She could get a consistent overnight shift, maybe. [/quote]
