Diapers & Foodstams: Imagine re-using diapers – many mothers, especially in today’s economy do just that:
@@@@ If you are reviewing the article, please let me post the links within this release. I just want to help on this issue. Seriously, you don’t even have to post anything about my site on it. This distrubs the f*&^ out of me. @@@
A recent article in Time Magazine disclosed the fact that most mothers on state supported systems are intelligible for support for disposable diapers. This article in full is as follows;

This article details in full, how parents of babies are unable to make ends meet. In today’s economy, families are put out on welfare, they lose their house, they end up on the streets because people have lost their jobs. The economy is rebounding slightly, but the unemployment rate is very high, even in comparison to recent recessions.
One of the major misconceptions is that people on state systems should be able to find work, but this is not something that is happening right now. People who have had great jobs their whole lives are unable to find work. The decision comes down to work at McDonalds for $6.00 per hour, or go on welfare. The solution is simple because welfare pays more. The problem is that Welfare pays for what the government considers “essentials”, and diapers are not on that list.
The real victim is the children, the babies. They are victims of their parent’s circumstances. Huggies, along with other services, including www.thediaperbank.org, are working to provide children with diapers they need. Although, and as the previously mentioned article notes, Huggies has an interest in selling more diapers, the children of these homes are the ones hurt by this. Without the ability to do laundry, or even possessing adequate laundry facilities, mothers are unable to resort to clean cloth diapers. Therefore, disposables are the only option. In many instances, mothers of these children are forced to re-use diapers, and put their children at risk for disease and other potential serious issues.
Some may argue that in other countries, they go without disposable diapers, or even diapers, however, in the United States, the average person would be so offended by an infant allowing “nature to happen naturally”, that the parent would most likely never allow that to happen again.
These charities and organizations, a partial list is below, help make sure these babies have the adequate hygiene – clean diapers – to transition from infants to children. This is really a sad element of our society, and these organizations make all the difference.

There are more diaper banks than this, but if you are interested in starting your own, the author suggests going to www.thediaperbank.org (but I’m sure Artilce Base doesn’t want you to know this). The site has an abundance of resources, tips and knowledge. Help parents help their children.
