Having just moved to Mexico, your family--like the Gonzalez family--has a monthly income of 2,400 pesos. Your expenses already exceed your dependable income.

What if:
One of your children becomes critically ill, requiring weekly visits to a health clinic four hours away? Fortunately, the clinic is operated by the state, so the fees are not as costly as they might be in a privately operated health center. However, you have no means of your own transportation, so you're forced to pay someone 100 pesos per week to take you and your child to the clinic.

Soon, you find that because of the nature of the illness, the doctors your child has been seeing no longer can treat her, so you're required to travel to a more specialized clinic--adding two more hours to the trip and 50 more pesos to the transportation cost, not to mention the medical fees and lost work time and income.

What would you do to make ends meet?
A. Take your other children out of school and send them to work.

B. Split up the family and move yourself and your child closer to the clinic in order to save on transportation costs.

C. Get minimal care for your child and pray she gets better over time on her own.

D. Reduce the family's food intake and minimize use of utilities.
