LOL man you're just getting into semantics when you start talking about the whole family as if that's not what I'm talking about when I say that 100% of the income would go to taking care of them. My point is if they lived with you you'd be paying more than $300-$350 a month to take care of them..as I stated above that's what is required of my brother in law to pay and that just covers food for these kids and maybe 1 bill...but there are far more expenses than just food and 1 bill...there's clothing, there's health care, there's school expenses, not to mention putting one of them through nursing school, there's every day living expenses like toiletries, tampons and toilet paper for 2 females each month not cheap, letting them be girls by buying make up etc...the list goes on man...god I'd love for all of it to just cost me $350 a month for the two of them.

Taking care of them includes taking care of the family you dipshit...that includes a roof over the head...food..car...health care whatever.
And just because I did not state that it's taking care of the whole family too does not negate my point...nor prove yours.

A man could live alone on $18.5K per year if necessary to provide for his children.

I live in Vegas and my monthly nut is $2,500 = $30,000 a year for 4 of us...yeah I could live on $18.5K per year if I had to...it's called budgeting.
