This unemployed poly mom has it all! Sure, her kids aren't in school, but dragging them fortnightly to a different state so their mom can leech off of two different men will surely teach them more than they could learn in any classroom!
Further digging through her comments reveals that she goes to AlAnon because one of her partners is a severe alcoholic. She probably sought out her super blissful poly lifestyle because she needs to get away from the alcoholic dude but doesn't feel she can leave him outright. The two cities she's living in are Winona, MN and South Bend, IN - six hours by car. Making the trip with two young kids probably means the whole day is shot.

There are a couple other notable responses unrelated to the poly mom's story:
This person has some insight as to how/why poly people can have the energy for multiple relationships: they feed off the drama and don't have much else going on. Note that the commenter is a lesbian; as a woman she probably feels more obligated to actually follow along with the ~poly drama~ whereas a guy might be comfortable just smiling and nodding through the tedious tales.
Speaking of tedious, can you imagine being at somebody's house and they try to make you look at the diagram of their stupid polycule that they have stuck to the fucking fridge?
