Some women love having children around them and when their children leave they go into the job market and some women continue to foster children when they do. It's like a job you get paid for, if you love kids you love your job.

It's non taxable.

It's not me who'll be getting the benefits either, and if he's still doing some work, he wont get as much, but I just thought the figure for if you don't work was pretty high. I think you can earn about $100/week before it starts being affected, so that's $700/week to live off. Not bad really.
