"supporting parent child relationships"????? which one? with the incarcerated parent or the stay at home parent? Some kids don't want a damn thing to do with an incarcerated parent.

My first reaction was, so they are brainwashing children to accept this as normal?

My first thought is how much is the State giving in assistance to the family, free and monetary. That is a secrete that is not put out or the Public would be upset. They get nothing from me.

I can tell some of the cartoon characters are "girls" and some are "boys". What is up with that? And only one of the characters has an afro? What is up with that?

Children and the elderly should come first in our society and if this program is handled correctly I will respect it. My hesitation is this I attended a church for years that did the Angel Tree Christmas, you had no contact with the children it was mostly grandparents and other adults who did not care the price whatever the child asked for was requested and they were some expensive requests, so this project for the church finally died out. I hope whatever they do they work through the activities and not have too many expectations take it as it comes, and a lot of patience.

No government program that says it is supposed to help the children ever helps the children

My first thought...? I have kids of my own to support.
Every time you turn around there's somebody holding out a hand.

6:28....right on.

Trump is correct. The middle class is being destroyed. It USED to be SHAMEFUL, dishonorable and embarrassing to be pregnant at 16, on welfare, a single mother with 3 kids at age 19, a convict, an ex-con, a high school dropout, or a drug addict.
Now, ALL those things are badges of honor and done with PRIDE. The people who DO go to work every day, pay taxes, do the right thing?
A target for MORE TAXES to take care of the careless, the stupid, the criminal, the lazy, and the voting base of the democraps.
I (and millions of others) have a hard time taking care of OUR family. We're getting CRUSHED. I can't afford to continue to support three or four OTHER families, especially when I see those other families with better things than I have (an apartment in an "artists community", a new car, jewelry, the best clothes, and LOTS of free time) and they don't even work!
Bring back shame.
Something needs to change, before "we, the people" start changing things on our own.

There seems there is no reward anymore for doing right. If you get a little ahead the government finds another way to tax you.
