Cocroaches, child abuse and DCF

I was making a list of things I hate. First were cocroaches (which btw DIED!!!!!). Second was child abuse (which isn't really second but just came to mind second) and today I had to add DCF. I just LOVE them falks (yeah!)
We are applying for medicaid for my pregnancy. Have you ever done that? I am becoming pretty good at predicting their requirements (and they are usually quite out of this world) but today they really surprised me. Because my husband lives out of state I have to submit an application for child support! Excuse me?! I told the lady we don't want to do that, that we are in fact a family. No, I have to do it. I mean what do you say to that. How much money is he sending me? She asked. I said, well, he's been unemployed for over a month so he didn't send anything... So there goes I guess child support. I also told her that when I applied in the past (while separated) it didn't do a thing (they never even contacted me once). She "doesn't know about any previous cases, but I have to apply".
There's DCF for you.
