Yes, lets all stick our elderly parents in nursing homes, so we can make minimum wage selling plastic crap manufactured in China.


OP didn’t say her friend is caring for an elderly parent, she’s at Starbucks, Whole Foods and surfing Facebook like a lazy layabout mooch.


PP's post wasn't about OP's friend. She said "everybody."

Anyway, leave the FA to the FA people. If you don't like how your school is doing it, discuss it with them or don't donate. I trust our school and donate and don't care how they decide who gets it. None of my business even though I donate. If your friend discusses her money problems with you and you don't like it, change the subject.

You should complain to your school.

Nobody is saying go get a 50 to 60 hour a week jet-setting career for $100k plus salary. But anyone can go find part-time work at nearby daycare center or Amazon or Target. And get off Facebook for Christ’s sake during workday hours. Nothing makes you look like a more pathetic working-prime loser.


Are you listening to what the people who actually know are saying?
FA TAKES INTO ACCOUNT an income for the SAHP. And that is probably more than that person would get working minimum wage for 5 hours a day.

So all of you who want this person to go work at a daycare center during the school day (which, wtf? What day care center is going to hire someone only for napping hours??) would actually end up with the school granting MORE aid to that parent, because they'd have income.


Why do all you SAHM defenders always exaggerate that no part-time jobs exist or some other crazy scenario? An attempt to rationalize laziness I guess.

You may not know what else is going on and the school might have details.

My friend had the type of MS that gets better temporarily and then worsens. Most of the time, she does not look disabled, but she can very suddenly go south. So she can’t work. The school has this info and gave an 80% FA package, but it’s not something shared with everyone.

Undoubtedly, your school was distributing FA, including to families with a SAHP, before you enrolled. Complaining now about the unfairness of FA is just as asinine as the SAHP complaining about the amount.

Point being, move on.


But no one goes to the school to complain, do they? Just here, where they are anonymous and there is no risk.

(And perhaps move on to considering the many ways that the unfairness of life has benefitted you.)

lol

You figure out who gets FA, you gossip about it and you treat FA families differently. Guaranteed your kids pick up on your attitude and take it to school with them.


NP. Don't be a moron. A family that is working but otherwise can't afford the tuition is NOT the same as a household with a SAHM that expects a handout. Not even close.


You don't even know if this is happening and you are all worked up about it.
