Susie on SYEP
If you have not read the piece I wrote and was so generously posted on GGW, you should check it out: Children should not be the breadwinners. I've been reading the comments with interest and to those who believe that I am suggesting families should starve, you miss the point. There are plenty of public policies that can help move families out of poverty (BTW, I think it should be way out of poverty, not just $1 above the FPL). Using SYEP for that is not a good way.
