@ Tabby I don’t know what kind of women you know but I know a few military ex wife’s who work very hard to provide for their children. And take care of them while the deadbeats get all the special treatment and just like you and others still judge them if they ask for help. I choose to help the spouse that leaves and teaches their children to be safe and not sorry. It’s such a loss to go back and forth about a subject no one cares about.

Your darned right I’ll put the blame wherever it may belong. The father for allowing himself to be weak minded, getting hooked on drugs yes. More so for that mother, being a part time mom, wanting the best for the children when it comes from someone else, but still going out juking several times a week, pushing her child in front of a video game (teaching him to be violent) or a TV (teaching him to be a liberal communist). So yeah, chump change for a few guys who have a proven record of doing for others who got weak for drugs, or an incalculable amount of children that the parent should’ve went to college for.

Wow the judgment of children never end. So while these men are off getting help and all the glory the women struggle to do whatever is necessary to provide for the children in shame. Maybe the men should have thought about the children before they destroyed their life and the mom’s. But hey let’s help the grown men and later put the blame on the mom’s.

I agree with you 100% Tabby! Our family couldn’t afford braces for our teeth so guess what? None of us got braces & we all turned out just fine! Braces are NOT a requirement to living a productive life. Yes, I wish I had beautiful, straight teeth but it hasn’t stopped me from being a productive member of society! My motto is ‘If you can’t feed ‘em, Don’t breed ‘em’!! SO many people now expect society to PAY for everything for them & their offspring! Get a job! Don’t have kids if you can’t afford things that you would like them to have. Pretty simple concept really…

sorry, but it all sounds like a way to get a free ride thru school to me. plenty of men have served in wartime without becoming criminals or substance abusers, or asking for special treatment when they got home.

And yet there are only a handful of inmates compared to countless children who need dental work. Inmates once lauded as heroes sacrificing their lives and welfare of their families lives for the freedom of people they didn’t even know (most of whom still don’t appreciate). Yes, they made a choice due to whatever mental or PTSD issues to take drugs. However I feel much more sympathy for them than some mediocre person who by their own choices, can’t afford dental insurance for a kid most likely on a horrible diet full of soda anyway. You must be one who wants the benefits of the service, not the sacrifice.

And yet there are children who can not afford braces for their teeth and the parent are looked down on for even trying to ask for help. Even adults can’t afford dental. If they ask for help they are judged seems that being a drug addict has more advantages than not. They have so many people wanting to help them.

I heard someone say on the subject a few days ago on here to let the preachers pay for this program not their tax dollars. And that is the mentality of what must be a perfect human being. That’s the mentality of this county, they could’ve volunteered their whole life or won the congressional medal of honor, made a mistake, hang em. Unless of course it’s a family member or friend of someone in the “clique”.
