For sure, this only shows that you have the capacity to work, it also shows that she is utilising her time in the wrong direction, she's doing all this extra work to make do with being out of work, I'm saying instead she should be focusing not on being comfortable poor, but escaping by getting a decently paying job which was not mentioned at all.

We have free education in this country, actually look:

People from the following groups are strongly encouraged to apply:

• First Nations Australians
• Young people (17-24)
• People who are out of work or receiving income support payments
• Unpaid carers
• Women facing economic insecurity
• Women undertaking study in non-traditional fields
• People with disability including autism and neurodivergence
• Certain categories of visa holders

Are you suggesting she is incapable of work despite the article showing the opposite?

Also believe it or not but as someone who has to do god awful job interviews if you explained how you have fixed your own shit around your house that'd show initiative which would put you ahead of so many applicants

The critical point is:

Is she in a tough spot? yes. is there any mention of getting a job, studying, anything to suggest she is trying to get out of this position? no.

the article might as well be a single line: being on jobseeker is tough
