Paper Diaper-Using Welfare Mothers Get No Sympathy Here

Regarding the budget cuts and the impact on AFDC and education: When I read about mothers who rely on welfare bemoaning the cost of diapers ($125 per month according to one) and baby wipes and baby powder, the need for education is really brought home. Has no one ever told these women about cloth diapers, wash cloths, and hot, soapy water?
