Republicans bitch and moan about falling birthrates then refuse to support families in any way and actually attack poor mothers for struggling when their employers stop paying them. Certified classic

so you agree, birth control should be free and abortion should be easily accessible?

Nowhere did it say she couldn’t afford 5 kids. Anyone would struggle when they lose all their income.

"I can't afford 5 kids..." This is a friend writing for her "But sure the government..." Nobody blamed anybody. You're hallucinating

No offense but you CANNOT afford 5 kids if one paycheck will ruin you. Like, I understand college kids don’t have a real grasp how how real life works but yall are naive as hell

I don’t know anybody who only gets one paycheck a month, it’s either weekly or biweekly

Sure, but I already live in a state where it’s legal so this is simply a character flaw.

Words on a screen isn’t cruel, telling your kids they’ll go hungry bc mommy couldn’t keep them crossed is fine though.

It doesn’t matter. Telling me I’m mean isn’t going to make these EBT idiots more responsible and they’ll feel that next month.

Maybe there's some context you excluded but based on what you showed this is a pretty humble request for assistance for a friend with kids... Idk what ur tweakin about

Maybe you’re slow (obviously) but I’m focusing on the fact that it’s normalized to live a life you can’t handle then come crawling to others to help. And telling them to buck up and be responsible is actually evil

"then come crawling..." Maybe you're slow but again this is her friend writing. Unless you're still leaving out context, you have no clue whether or not she even asked. I know kindness might be an alien concept to somebody as spiteful as yourself but it does in fact exist and people do in fact help others unsolicited

But none of that matters. You're just hateful and looking to moralize poverty. Perspectives like yours are a detriment to society
