Dead-beat dads?—or dead-broke dads? Barry Brownlee is trying to do the right thing for his kids—all of whom were raised on welfare. But the government was taking over half of his paycheck to pay back the state for past welfare support. What's a dead-broke dad to do? KPBS Reporter Alison St. John explores the role of fathers in the brave new world of welfare reform.
