Sorry, I was tired.
The problem is the parents need some form of childcare. Be it themselves, or other family members sent to school sick due to financial concerns.
Hope you're better rested now!
I was raised with only one parent working. My kids are lucky enough to have that too. I consider it a sickness in our society that that is no longer the norm and that most families need both parents working for a family to survive. I am amazed that a solo parent can survive at all.
The comments from the government are just inhumane.
