We are a family of 6, and used to put aside monthly abut 10-15% of our income. Lately we seem to live paycheck to paycheck and have to do somehibg about it. Decided after few weeks of deliberation to put the little one, Jimmy, in foster care. He is the youngest one, in elementary stll, and doesn't have formidable grades compared with his bigger brothers and sisters. We told him two months ago about our decision and he is very sad since. Cries a lot lately. We decided he can still stay until March next year. He will be fine for sure. In the same time we are considering giving up our Country Club membership, cancel the trip to Europe next year, and sell one of the boats. Still, there is something that tells us what we are doing doesn't make sense. And Jimmy is crying...

Personally, I prefer Jump from VH, but know sure if this is the right context here )=

Given the uncertainty of the economy and the drought, you won't get much for the boats. But you'd probably double your Dir. salary by pimping little Jimmy out. I feel compelled to point out that the feds will not approve of such transactions
Van Halen's "Jimmy's crying": that's a good one
Sell Jimmy on Craigslist so you can raise the money for your vacation.
Keep Jimmy -- don't send to foster care
