Mothers are resilient people.  I am sure she will find a way to feed her kids. Hopefully with support from family, friends, and her community.

Most of them are but you also have black widows in between...

It’s a simple flat empty statement. True, they are resilient and do stand on their feet with help.  However, when this is short, see how quickly they spiral downward into a life selling themselves to put food on the table.  The fact that she appealed tells of the growing desperation!

She will need help, and for a sustained period.  The government needs to step in with social assistance. Furthermore, someone needs to take up the case and hold the employer accountable.  

The employer should be part of the financial solution.  The Govt officials living in the stratosphere while people struggle to breathe in the gutter. 

PPP was no different. They ain’t do squat for workers rights except maybe sugar workers.
