So the government won't let single parents keep their children's maintenance money, and they won't hike welfare rates - yet millions go out to help other countries, which has nothing to do with our children.

Their future and their lives depend on us.

Christy Clark has abused every single parent for years, and no one seems to care enough to stop her.This is the lowest form of persecution and mental abuse directed to the ones who should be getting the money, and that is the children.

Pretty bad when you rob a child of its birthright by an adult who constantly rejects them and humiliates the parent, whose only crime was to have children that she ended up supporting them on her own. Raise the welfare now.
