You dismiss them as being nonsensical irrelevant questions is either just your opinion, or you can't answer them. They are relevant.
How so? How do the answers to those questions change the fact that parents are double-dipping when they receive food stamp benefits to feed children at/from home who get free meals at school?
Octomom and 'Who's going to pay for my 15 kids Mom' are extreme examples. However, it SHOULD be noted that women who receive public assistance have a birth rate 3 times higher than those who don't. That means that for every one child born that is supported by its parents, three are born that have to be supported by means-tested social welfare programs.
Consequently, we have a problem with an unsustainable exponentially increasing welfare-dependent population. I've already shown the math on how devastating the results will be, here: http://www.city-data.com/forum/34233827-post268.html
While you are hammering away TODAY on the majority of people who have been forced to rely on government, you don't know what TOMORROW has in store for you or a family member - your children, grandchildren, relatives, seeing as how this country is declining. There are no guarantees that circumstances could force someone in your family to turn to government for one thing or another. Pity for them, they will have to hear the same things you have said about everyone else who relied on government. Many people have been forced to rely on government, designed by government.

Indeed. Which is why I have never spent every penny I've earned, have no debt, have saved up an emergency fund, and didn't have more kids than I could afford to support without relying on public assistance.
Think how much better our society would be if many more people acted responsibly.

How do you know that there are thousands of people who were doing the same thing and were hit with a situation that turned their life upside down? Lost a job due to company downsizing or shipped overseas, hours cut at work, illness. I was talking about the future and you don't know if a situation might arise that could cause one of your family members lives go upside down and they find themselves in the same position as those that you hammer. This country is in a decline and will continue to decline as long as government keeps operating the way it has been allowed to.

Should they report every time they're invited to someone else's house to eat, too? Every time someone treats them at a restaurant? I can't understand why you're so wigged out about this.

Sadly the new face of America is working a low paying job subsidized with food stamps and other government programs.
students at school from 7 or 8 in the morning till 4:30 in the late afternoon would get mighty hungry waiting for a parent to drop by who works all day.

Hammer? I complained about double-dipping, parents getting food stamp benefits for the same free meals their kids are getting at school.
Do you pay for your meals twice?
