I compare it with families that want that first child, but they think they are not ready yet, so they keep postponing for the wright moment. 

I recently had to pay a $175 plumbing bill (a child's tooth brush was flushed down the toilet). 

There is even a clause where a child will be exempt from the sq ft rules until they are 12 months old, so new additions to a family can mean no lease renewal as well.      

Plus, maybe the parents seeing how in-depth the screening process is would lead to them feeling more confident about the property their child will be living in. 

It had liens on it (child support, district court, hoa, which I was able to get them released) and it had a mortgage from 09/2006 And deed of trust said for 247,200.

It's a debit card and can only be used for specific healthy food items that are appropriate for a young child.

because my wife is an only child and her parents are getting on in years now.

That same freedom allows for positive as well as negative things (think internet gambling and the child porn and the malware and scammers).

It is like the old story of the kid in school that studied hard to get an "A" and the teacher suggested to lower her grade to a "C" and give the credit to a child that did not study to raise him from an "F" to a "C", this way they are both equal.

California is the poster child of what will happen to America if Obama is elected again.
