WTF? Alan Grayson's estranged wife is getting food stamps

[NanceGreggs]

552. It would seem apparent ...

... that the consequences the children are being subjected to are being caused by Grayson.

He's the one refusing to properly maintain the home his children live in.

He's the one refusing to provide sufficient support so that his children don't require food stamps and free lunches. I would imagine that's pretty humiliating for the offspring of a public figure who is known to be a multi-millionaire.

He's the one waving the "your mother was never my legal wife, therefore I owe her nothing after a 29-year relationship" banner in public.

He's the one pursuing money from his children's mother, when his children are in the best possible position to know that the woman who bore them, raised them, cared for them, etc., has no financial resources of her own - while dad, on the other hand, has millions in assets, in addition to a substantial income.

While I don't agree with your assessment of what went on in this marriage, and who is to blame for what - let's put that aside and focus on the "consequences to the children" as a separate issue. Because when one does that, it seems obvious that the children have been humiliated by their father's actions, are living in an unhealthy house due to their father's actions, and are using gov't assistance in order to eat due to their father's actions.

As I've said before in this thread, Grayson is a self-serving douchebag. And any man who holds the mother of his children up for public scorn and humiliation is apparently NOT interested in what the consequences to his children are in doing so.
