A friend of mine is on WIC. She is white and 19 but she says that everytime
she goes in to WIC to get her food coupons, they push the formula coupons on
her and tell her she really needs to get the formula "just in case" and
"because it's free." It annoys the heck outta her. I'm glad she's stubborn
and having a good bf relationship with her baby! She calls me her free LC!
Can't wait until she finished reading Milk, Money, and Madness!
