Whose on it? How does it make you feel?
Do you get embarrassed at the store?Do you
feel they supply enough? Etc..
I am on it...
Weird, I love in a richy rich town. I get
embarrassed at the store a little but I am
taking care of my son that is all that
matters..
I dont feel that they supply what they
should.

My sister is on it, and id like to be on
it when I have a kid and I was kinda
embarassed, but my sisters never are. I
mean its cool to have it, but when you
have to pay with it in stuff, we live in a
rich town but that shouldnt matter, its
free right? Lol

Yeah that is what I have to go to in june.
They want me to make my doc do blood work
again. Because it would be more than 90
days old. I was like medical question.
Wic doesnt require blood work until 1
year, docs do it at 9 months now...Ugh

When I had my son, they clinic
automatically put me on it. All I have
to do certify him every six months. I
was embarrassed in the beginning, but when
you see how it helps finacially,
especially with the baby milk. All that
embarrassment goes away. I still get wic
for him, and now i'm getting it for me
until the baby is born. Then the baby
gets it. Why be embarassed out taxes
that we work for pay for it anyway. My
husband bustes his ass at work to support
me and his family why let someelse get
what he works for.

Gee, I haven't ever really heard of anyone
being embarassed about being on wic.
Around here where I live, everyone tries
to get wic. It's a really great way to
save money. Wic isn't really for people
who can't afford stuff, it's just to help
out single moms or people who take the
time to go through all the processes to
qualify. It's a support system for mom
and baby.  maybe that's just
how it is around here, I dunno. Lol.

I was a little embarrassed about it at
first.....But most everyone whos not
snotty and rich tries to get on it. I
know how you feel stacie.....I mean steven
king lives 20 minutes away from me! There
are some nice multi-million dollar houses
very very close.....But not really in my
neighborhood. Walking distance. But I
don't care any more. I just say ha....We
pay taxes.....Its payback. Lol. And it
helps quite a bit......But they give u too
much peanut butter.....I mean, does anyone
actually go through that much peanut
butter??? I have like, 8 cans of it not
even opened! Lol!
