The job wasn't enough to pay the bills and we were sinking into massive debt...and all we had was a cheap apartment. My mom took on two jobs and wasn't ever home. We never went to church during this period because she had to work. I soon got mixed up in drugs and the street scene. My mom chose to get back on welfare so she could parent me and help me get my life together.
I'd like to thank you fine tax payers...no telling where I'd be if my mother would have had nowhere to turn.
