» Barbara Gibson - Cycle of Abuse of the System
In response to Cycle of Abuse of the System posted by maj04:
Yes, there are a few bad apples in every bunch, but for the most part families receiving assistance really want to feel personal success, pride and accomplishment, too. Sometimes they simply lack the confidence, skills or resources they need to fashion the fulfilling lives we all deserve. It sounds like you are doing a wonderful job of helping your own children grow up to be confident and capable people. They are very lucky. I hope you will consider sharing some of your time and talent with a young boy or girl that could use some encouragement to break the cycle you mention. There is a child out there that really needs you.
