I'm a woman, mother, wife, college-educated, 60+-hour a week, working, taxpaying citizen of this county, but there are still women my age and younger who can't seem to get their life together despite all the advances they have been given, especially with all the state-funded programs around here! It's not this county's responsibility for all of your poor life choices, your bad kids or failed relationships. They still find something to complain about! Come on ladies, if you want to be seen as strong and independent, start acting like it! Stop trying to beat the system. Start being proactive.
