That's freaking poor! Do they not even take out Social Security? She deserves that $4000 anyway. As a single mother, I have a lot of respect for people who do it all on basically nothing. I've been pretty lucky, I guess. I don't get much child support, hell, I pay child support... but I have always been able to earn a decent living. I don't make very much at my day job, and I always claim zero dependents in order to get the best possible return. I paid a few thousand dollars last year in taxes, and even with an EIC, I got all but $2k back.
