[quote=Anonymous]OP, I honestly do not know what the answer to this plight is.  Some of these adults are in the situation due to their own making and unfortunately they brought innocent babies into a fracked up situation.  I do not believe that being poor is negligent, but I do believe that many of these parents were very negligent.  The children will suffer for the actions of the parents.

If you a full-time college student depending on scholarships and no job, why would you have a child.  I understand that birth control fails.  She should have considered abortion or adoption.

The 19-yoa with the three children should really have her parental rights revoked.  I understand that at 14 she was probably neglected and abused herself and that is what led her to become a 14-yoa birth mother.  I cannot call her a parent or mother.  At 19 she is desirous of a GED.  I think social services should help her to obtain a GED and the children placed into the system for adoption, not foster placement.  She is incapable of providing for those children.

I do understand that some of the families are the victims of hard times.  But, I bet most of them made piss-poor choices and who should pay for their failed choices.  Should the innocents pay and grow-up to repeat the dismal cycle.  Should the taxpayers.  Who?

And OP before you get into her hoity-toity tude, I too have given, as in past tense, my time to mentor and tutor.  I too, as in present tense, give money and clothes to organizations to feed the hungry.  As a matter of fact, such organizations receive it as my method of tithing.  But, you nor I cannot throw enough time, money, and clothes at the problem, if somehow we cannot get the Asia's and Cruz's to refrain from having children when they can barely afford to care for themselves.
