Yup, exactly. They don't have enough money to support the whole family.

Sometimes, probably depending on the state, people will get more welfare the more kids they have.

Thats what I was going to say. Obviously if they went from rich to poor..its not their fault. But if they were already living in a box w/o kids...then thats just plain dumb!

I told you this on IM, but I'll tell you again. Not all 'poor' people have many children, although this may seem so.

Anyhow, kids are usually a persuit to happiness, and what's more than living life without that? Sure, the parents may not be able to offer most benefits that 'wealthier' families are able to give their children, however in most cases, that's what keeps them a close-knot family: depending on eachother and living on what they have, not what they want.

I'll tell you why poor people have a lot of kids...because a lot of them are STUPID!!!! It's true. I live smack dab in the middle of Applachia and I don't know what's wrong w/ some of these people. Hmmmm, possibly lack of education, money, and I bet all that inbreeding screws w/ people's heads..j/k I don't know why really poor people don't use birth control, but they don't seem to! I mean you can get it free at certain health care places. Gawd, there's a woman who walks up and down my street w/ a lot of kids and a baby she pushes in a stroller, and she beats the hell outta her kids and screams and curses at them. I'm thinking..Why do people like that breed????
