Does she want sympathy for having to get 2 buses? She and her ex had both contributed to the circumstances the children find themselves in. Have neither of them or their 'partners' a car whereby someone could drop the children back and forth. She had a big family or siblings and a father too. She's trying to play the victim. They amount of free houses, state assistance and other amounts of money that they have gotten for nothing over the years should have ensured some form of financial security for those children.
