16. Why does she have a Ford F-150 truck?

Why is she only a part-time tax consultant? Why doesn't she seek a full-time job?

She's 55 and she's depending on food stamps and social security (maybe from a deceased spouse?) to live?! That's crazy.

Does her 17 year old son have a job?

I'm sorry to sound harsh but if she was one of my kids I'd tell her to get off her butt, sell the super-expensive truck, and get a full-time job. And the kid needs to get a job too. And there's nothing wrong with riding a bike to buy groceries.
