Single mother with 6 kids gifted car refurbished by high school automotive tech students
Some automotive tech students at a high school in Virginia have been working all year to fix up a car to surprise a single mother with six kids.
"We got this poor person a free car~" stories are basically ALWAYS orphan crushing machine stories.
39Me: I'm so poor I literally couldn’t afford to have a single kid.
Other poor people: Hmm, maybe 5 kids just isn’t enough?
25There is not any info about why she's a single mother. Maybe her husband died or left her? Who knows? Maybe we shouldn't fall into the trap of judging someone based on our assumptions?

That's nice to hear. When I was a kid the votech shop class would restore old cars to mint condition and then go to a 'crushing party' where they watched from a distance as the car had the engine ripped out and then was put into a crusher and turned into a cube. It broke everyone's heart every time but they school said it was a liability issue and if anything happened and it was the kids fault it would be a nightmare. So many kids tried to work out deals with the principal to keep the cars but it never happened. Nice to hear common sense winning out on this!
22What an awful waste
12It is absolutely not a liability issue. Sale of a used car by someone who isn't a dealer is as-is where-is at least in my state and I assume most others. They can even do like some districts do with their busses; they pull the batteries and say it can't leave the property under its own power. So you get a tow truck to tow it 100ft down the road, chuck a battery in it and drive it away, then at that point you've "restored it" and anything wrong is something you missed.
2take your time machine back to 1980 and tell the vo -tech principal that pal. I am just telling you what that students were told.

17Maybe someone should have gifted her a tubal ligation?

I'm amused that ppl are making fun of her.
Crazy amount of kids will be the norm with Roe v Wade overturned. More moms on food stamps and govt program dependability
You reap what you sow

I don’t have children because I literally couldn’t afford a single one.
Other poor people: Hmm, maybe 5 kids just isn’t enough?
3Ever notice the correlation between poverty and low-quality education?
