I was a single father from the time my son was 8 months old. I was never on government assistance, child support, nor did I have family to help. If you have a child it's your responsibility. I worked 14hrs a day roofing houses to pay child care and pay my bills. No excuses. No handouts If you want to succeed nothing is holding you back. My son is now 20, an officer in the Navy. Suck it up.

Good job. There are others that aren't as fortunate. I worked my ass off since I was 14 and bought a house at 25. I make over 80k a year with no formal education. I know my situation doesn't universally apply to everyone and I'm not going to hold that against them. I will fight for everyone to have a better, easier chance at success.
