[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP's question may be ignorant, but many of the replies are just nasty and mean-spirited. Why can't you simply answer in a neutral tone like "You do not need to worry; most voucher families are nice working class families"? Just state the fact, and give OP a few example of typical occupations that contribute to the society but do not make much money and hence are likely to qualify for vouchers. In DC area there are many immigrants who came to the US via higher education or professional work (I was one of them). It takes them many, many years of assimilation to understand how the US society works. Questions such as "what kind of people receive daycare vouchers? should I be worried about them?" may seem very dumb to you US-born or US-raised DCUMers, but it's a totally legit question from a recent immigrant parent. Not to mention how typical it is for 1st time parents to be hyper-nervous about things that are non-issues in retrospect. Next time before you reply something nasty, think about the possibility that people may came from a different perspective and hence unintentionally rub you in the wrong way. Your humiliating attitude is just gonna push people away instead of educating them and helping them to learn about compassion for others. [/quote] OP has 0 compassion. I have vouchers. I'm an American and I want to be treated with respect. I'm a working parent who struggles with payments. The government wants me to have children but won't give me enough money to raise them. Illogical, they are pro birth not prolife. They don't care what happens to kids after they're born. Just criticize and no help to parents like money and fund more social programs [/quote]
