My mom had 11 siblings in her family, only her dad worked. He was a postal service employee. They owned a home and all kids were well fed and dressed. They weren’t rich but they weren’t poor either. That would be absolutely impossible to do these days.
Great comment. CPS would step in nowadays and either take the children, or the dad would be arrested and the mom would be forced to marry the government.
My grandfather was a carpenter, but Mom always used to tell me that all through the Depression, her and her sisters always had enough to eat and never lacked for clothes.
