Single Mother's & The History Of Welfare -- Pitied But
Not Entitled : A 15 page review of Linda Gordon's book in which the writer
analyzes how reformers view poor single mothers and welfare. Three of its chapters are
about the views of the white women's social welfare network, the black women's social
welfare network (excluded from the white women's groups mostly by raw segregation), and
the white male social insurance reformer network. Gordon argues that contemporary welfare
programs for single mothers were shaped by the ideas and the decisions that went into
state aid programs created between 1910 and 1920, programs that were variously called
mothers' pensions, widows' pensions and mothers' aid. Various sociopolitical points and
arguments presented by Gordon are analytically presented. No other sources cited. Wlefbook.wps
Welfare and Low-Wage Work : An 8 page paper based on
Edin and Lein’s Making Ends Meet: How Single Mothers Survive Welfare and Low-Wage
Work, discussing some of the survival strategies of single mothers unable to support
themselves and their children fully through either welfare programs or low-wage work. Full
time low-wage employment appears to yield higher income than full dependence on welfare,
but the net result of employment for single mothers is that after daycare expenses and the
added expenses of working, the family’s net income often is less than if the mother
relied only on welfare to support herself and her children. Welfare recipients themselves
often are forced to seek other, unreported, income in order to support their families

also whether or not they are actually necessary. The writer evaluates whether or not
single mothers on welfare are currently motivated to seek work and whether they deserve
the continued support of welfare programs. Social issues and political viewpoints on
welfare reform are examined in considerable detail. Bibliography lists approximately 10
sources. Welfpoli.wps
