"I told mom that if she left dad, she'd be eligible for government aid, which she couldn't get now because she had an able-bodied husband. Some people at school-not to mention half the people on Little Hobart Street-were on welfare, and it wasn't so bad."

Money doesn't represent the theme unconditional love, but the action that but the action that Rex does. Jeannette's dad gave her money so she wouldn't drop out of college. Even though he and Rose Mary were in more need of money and Jeannette leaving their family, that love he had for Jeannette was unconditional because he wanted to see her succeed. She was his mountain goat.

Food, food stamps, when Jeannette and her siblings were starving and her dad was drinking and smoking she realized that her dad was the problem.
