the child gets Medicaid and WIC and the
but the state is doing nothing to collect on it. Just since January, the bios currently owe $8000 in past due CS. I would love to have some help with $700/month daycare expense, but they figure that is my choice, so it's my burden. I make too much money to qualify for any help from any organization.


Thanks for the support.
It's called Medicaid.
If you're working, you probably don't qualify.

I would call doctor's offices and ask if they have a payment plan. I sure as heck wouldn't be able to afford to go if I didn't have insurance. My FP charges $120 for each visit. I cannot imagine what a specialist would charge.
I live in MO and we have Medicaid or they call MO HealthNet.

Everyone is eligible, it just depends on how much you make on how much of a premium you have to pay.  When I was working as an IC, I was making around the equivalent of $17 an hour and for my two kids to be covered it was $24 a month total which was automatically deducted from my checking account.  There were no copays for doctor's appointments or for prescriptions.  However, not every doctor will take patients on Medicaid. 


I assume that every state has a program like that, but then I could be wrong.


Medicaid for poorer folks, Medicare for retirees
But no matter your age if the person is on dialysis you are automatically put on Medicare.

I wish I would have reported her. . sm
I was very young. She was the office manager and had been there 20+ years. She was really close with all of the doctors, and I had only been there a year. It wasn't worth it. She was a peach!
What would you have reported about her?
That she was insensitive, crass, lacking integreity, just what? What she did does not fit the classification of creating a hostile situation. Maybe if the same malady had bothered her or her mother, she might have been a little more understanding BUT her statement nor actions of giving you toilet paper does not come under a category that is anything but someone just lacking a good upbringing, that's all.
He has been reported...sm
They just say if he comes on my mother's property to call 911. Until then nothing they can do. The sheriff who is his friend did tell him not to go back over to my mom's propoerty or he would be arrested for trespassing. But the sheriff doesn't take this real serious because he knows him and he cannot believe he does this.
I have reported this so the Administration. Please SM

I'm so sad right now. I am thinking the worst. it was reported that she sm
had paramedics on top of her giving CPR.

If this is true and she has met her demise, I think it was a combination of a heart ache and drugs to cope with her great loss. As much as people didn't like her, she is a mother who truly loved her son. I have 3 and can't imagine if one of them passed like that.
My aunt reported a Walmart employee
who left the ladies' room without washing her hands. 
I wouldn't have quit - I'd have reported her for creating

Should definitely be reported to principal/school board. Ridiculous!

Last night on Nancy Grace they reported a lot of the women are SM
on Welfare, and that the young boys work construction jobs and then turn all the money over to the leaders of the compound. Someone earlier posted that these are members of the Mormon church, but my cousin, who died in 1999 was Mormon and her husband who visited our family 2 years after her death (they lived on the opposite coast) told us that the Mormon church absolutely no longer tolerates polygamy. He has been Mormon all his life. 
Welfare

How do I feel about welfare? 


1.  I believe in what the Bible says about if a man asks for you coat, give him you cloak also.  My church teaches that we give if asked, and we have done what we are suppose to.  If they were underserving, then that is on them. 


2.  Don't judge.  When my husband and I divorced, I was raising 3 children, working, and going to college to learn to be a MT.  I could barely pay the rent.  The ONLY thing I did not have to worry about was food, because I received food stamps.  I HATED it.  I saw people roll their eyes when I got out my food stamps.  I cried all the way home.  On my birthday, my best friend told me my birthday gift was having my nails done (something I had never done).  I went with her when she had her nails done and thought it was such a luxary.  Well, she took me to get my nails done for my birthday, and someone from my church saw me there.  That person went to my pastor and said they would never help anyone in the church again, because if I could afford to get my nails done, the I did not need help.  Not only was I embarrassed about the situation, but I was hurt that someone had judged me.


3.  Be grateful you don't have to use food stamps.  When I finished school, I was elated after I got a good job and did not have to use food stamps.  When I saw someone having to count out their food stamps in front of me, I was sad for them but glad that they got some help.  I also would busy myself so as to not embarrass them.


Yes, some people abuse the system, but I would rather 10 people abuse the system than 1 person and/or family go hungry.


This is just my opinion.  Please do not bash me.  You can't say anything I have not heard before, believe me.


How do you know she will be on welfare? (nm)

maybe she collects welfare and does not tell you.

This goes toward the conversation on welfare below

Remember that conversation about single moms, welfare and foodstamps?


I was reading an article on MSNBC today.  This man ended up in just the situation I was talking about.  Read the whole article.  Pay attention to the fact that it mentions medical bills and reverse mortgages.

Thank you. Single moms on welfare are not all bad ones.
Women on here who say they have SOOOOO much saved for retirement and then talk about drawing social security burn my behind. It wasn't intended for the well-off to draw in the first place and probably will be gone by the time most of us get old enough to draw it.

This person is obviously overwhelmed with greed, wouldn't you say? In this day and age, with the greedy falling left and right, this one apparently doesn't understand that greedy behavior is no longer PC.
Matrimonial (or shackup) welfare then..I see!

If that's not a case for welfare reform, I don't know what is - sm
Wouldn't it make sense for us (as taxpayers) to say: We understand occasionally people have hardships and need food stamps and other help; however, while you are receiving assistance, you must have Norplant (or something that can't be accidentally forgotten) so that you cannot have another child while receiving it? Otherwise we are simply perpetuating the welfare state by enabling unemployed people to have as many kids as they can, and rewarding them to do so.
Well, the former welfare recipient has her millions now & feels
regardless if it adversely affects children.  She knows full well that her books are read by children.  Since she has opted to make such a poor decision, I am opting to make a good decision and no longer purchase her books, watch her movies, or buy any products related to her books as she gets a cut on everything.  It's one thing to have a personal opinion about homosexuality, but she didn't have to publicly link it to a character in her books.
Are you sister of poster with tax-welfare issues?

How do you feel about Food Stamps/Welfare?

In the way home from school last night, I had to run into the Ameristop to get a gallon of Orange Juice.


Well, as I was pulling in, this lady (about 25) was walking in, sort of rough looking girl.


Well, she was ahead of me in line then and she got her food stamps out, and typically this kind of thing makes me upset. Because, you could see physically anyway, there was nothing wrong with her.


But, maybe there was....... or maybe she lost her job, and is trying to manage. Not that I was being nosey or anything, but there she had 2 Gallons of Milk, Sausage and Biscuit Dough. So, maybe she was trying to get breakfast for her family in the morning. So now all of a sudden I feel guilty.


But, if we weren't in these hard economic times where jobs were scarce, I typically wouldnt be as understanding, because I do feel Welfare is Abused.

What about you?

THEN, another thing......... maybe you will know, Sometimes you see Welfare people ahead of you in line at the grocery store or something, and they ALWAYS have "Name-brand" in their cart. Never Store Brand. Well I shouldnt say Never, but it always seems like your name brands.


Does Welfare require them to get Name Brand?


I DID NOT DRAW WELFARE. I got food stamps
only for a very short time.  I was also a taxpayer then and had been for a number of years before and still continue to be.  Why don't you come down off your high horse and realize that sometimes people need help.  I hope that you and Amy never become disabled and have to rely on government services to help you. 
A single mother by choice does not make them a welfare
recipient and/or a bad person. Heck, I would be more inclined to put that person as unselfish and determined. You chose the easy way out, the single mother took on her commitment and took the responsibility.
i care about child abuse, welfare fraud, and
dumping of young males to the streets, so they lessen the competition for the multi-wife thing. This is all well-documented. This is not about just polygamy -- which is also against the law, but its the abuse of children and abuse of our welfare system -- all under the banner of religion. If it was just about men taking multiple ADULT wives, the government would not likely have stepped in to even enforce that law.

Make a fuss to school board, principal, teachers, dept. of child welfare (sm)
whoever you need to. I understand these are difficult to get rid of but obviously the mom of that little girl is not getting rid of them, maybe she treats the child but if you don't clean up the environment reinfestation is a sure thing.

We got a letter from the school yesterday stating there is a lice outbreak in the school. Then we had a program last night in which all the 3rd graders put on these little capes (that came out of a community bag where they had used them before at practice and then bagged them back up) They of course went over their heads and rested on their shoulders. I wasn't the only person that sucked in air when they saw this last night.

I am sure that poor child is and will be embarrassed about this and probably other things in the future if her health/hygiene issues are not being taken care of properly.
