When I was "poor", I certainly didn't decide to have children. Life circumstances don't make your choices, you do...
some people try to have children regaurdless of economic status.
life does make choices for you, where you are born, what body you are given.
people can follow their own path in life, but only as far as circumstances allows.
these people cannot qualify for medicaid but cannot afford private coverage. did you expect the family to know this at the time when they decided to have a child? do you expect them to plan it all out methodically? when people are living in the moment they only are focused on what is currently at hand.
