"then I'll go on EBT and possibly welfare"
OK - first you do not "go on" EBT - that is the acronym for "Electronic Benefits Transfer"
2. PLEASE you keep using this as if it is a threat, IF you choose to disclose all of the info to get benefits...and you qualify, and you choose to apply for benefits, either for your whole family or just your children, that is a choice that you, your childrens biological father and any other income sources can make.
The point is, it is a choice that YOU can make, not that someone else is making for you.
So why do you continue to want to direct others on the choices they SHOULD make, based on their age?
My MIL decided to go ATVing for the first time at 88.... she probably was utilizing a seat & tourist dollars that a much younger person could have enjoyed.... but it was a choice SHE made & we supported.
I really do not think any age argument would have been wise to use on her, ever! & when she decides she wants to zipline, hangglide, cliff dive or go back to work at 90, we will support her, because that is our way of respecting her and her decisions.... & a way of truly respecting the decision of one elders... to allow them to make their choices.
To bad some will judge her based only on her age!
