I am a welfare mom currently. We get food stamps, medical card and TANF. But only for the next couple of months for the TANF. Im on it because I was in my last relationship for quite some time, and he was the only one working. I was home with my daughter. Then, he up and left and left us with nothing. I have no work skills and am having problems finding a good job.

I am not on welfare. I am sorry for some of the people on it but I get angry at the ones that abuse it. I have to pay for the lazy people who don't want to find a job. It makes me very mad.

No I'm not on welfare but it's to know that somebody is out there helping people in need. It's nothing to be embrassing about it. If I qualify for welfare, I would do it.
