"mother of three adult children"

Where the hell are her adult children at? They should be taking care of her.

It's my experience that if you want a roof over your head, you'll work hard enough to make it happen. My family did.

Take portland Oregon for example. All the free loading hippie drugged out kids that want to live on the streets. They think it's cool to rebel against mom and dad. Then when they get older they realize they're just stupid.

Her sons need to get their frackin' act together. The only time the mom should have been working when the kids weren't was when they were too young to do so.

It's been my theory for a while. Gavin gave 'em all incentive to find thier way south. Like nomads they wandered thier way. Has any one been to Palo Alto in the last 2 years and noticed the dramatic increase in homeless on University Ave.

Man, it's sad that children can treat their parents like that.

that SJ MURKY article mentions social security.

SS rewards the really lazy and punishes the working. when you make a certain amount of money, they just cut you off.

SS needs to be trashed and something else needs to be redone...
