Not to tell anyone what they needa do with their life, but if I was in a situation like this I'd relocate for work. North Dakota trying to build up it's workforce, average wage even to work at like Target and shyt is $1.50 over minimum wage. It's important to be looking at what your making over minimum wage rather than the actual number you're making, because prices of a livable wage in a state are usually based off min wage. That being said, places where you make more like NY got that high rent too... Like yeah it would suck to move away from family but you gotta chase the paper. Put yourself in a better situation with a lil nest egg saved up an move back when a better job reveals itself.

Be fukking responsible. Is that so hard? If you are having kids that young, you are obviously choosing not to use birth control. So, fukk that bytch and every other fukkhead who has kids they can't afford.
condoms break and they're are poor people who don't have kids. U don't feel sorry for her fine. That's your business. I feel for her and that's my business.

It's funny cause folks will start looking at ya ass crazy if you tell someone who they should and shouldn't be fukking. But its looking like folks would be making financial lifesavers holding out, or at least limiting the level of sex they having until knowing they have a steady income so if a life is created, you ready.

I mean yea the only solution is to not be having sex cause condoms break and birth control can be unreliable if u got the pill and aren't taking them like u should,

You can see that word gap already forming. :wow: That kid is fukked.

She should get into the nursing game. Isn't that a smooth 30k a year after 2 years of school tops?
no it's not.

U must do prerequisites, and the prerequisite to apply for the nursing program has perquisites itself. So while u might get into an actual nursing program that can be done in 2 yrs that's only after you've done all of the other classes that u need just to apply. This would be for the RN and BSN. For LPN it's not as much.

And RN, BSN earning potential can be much, much higher than 30k.

Nurses can make upwards to 110k depending on the degree, their location,speciality and skills

thats why we need a economy...white manager getting (the overseer) getting 60 an hr while nikkas get a few dollars ...aye she said "i want him to have a good paying job!" newsflash the white man got a cell or a spot on the mcdonalds team for him

there would be no homeless shelters, no soup kitchens, no battered women's sheltors, no feeding the kids in Africa, no food drives. If everyone felt like the typical uppity negro Coli man.

If she can get 11k in benefits, she can get financial aid for school. No excuse to not be in a nursing, or dental assistant program. Poor people have more help with their situation than middle class people do.


Also receiving that much in aid disincentivizes her from getting a higher paying job(say 10-13hr), since the value of the lost benefits would outweigh the higher wage.

just read the comments

"Unskilled labor isn't even worth minimum wage, let alone $15/hour. You want more money, stop smoking pot or crack or drinking your life away, learn a skill that's in demand, and go get that fat paycheck... and give these fast food jobs back to the high school and college kids that need them. The Deadbeat dad is either behind bars or dead."

this is what the ppl that we depend on think? so much for post racial equality huh

idk why she's buying frozen/packaged foods and soda that shyt's not really cheap for what you're getting in calories (or nutrition if you care about that)

could get a lot more value eating shyt like eggs, rice, bread that's on sale (cuz it'll expire in a few days), etc.

not to mention that frozen shyt nasty af
