Why was Obama’s mother accepting food stamps, was she one of the welfare queens?

During the time obama says his mother was accepting food stamps she would have been (circa 1974-1977) pursuing her PHD, and her children at that time were living full-time with her mother who happened to be Vice President of the Bank of Hawaii, and why didn’t he mention usage of food stamps in either of his autobiographies?

SOURCE; BOTH OF OBAMA’S BIOGRAPHIES
Plenty of people live without food stamps, especially if their children are living full time with someone else, I suppose she never thought of taking work to supplement ?

I get SO sick of this lie, His mother was an Archaeologist, and his Grand mother was a bank executive. He had a stepfather who raised him and was also a bank exec. If he grew up poor, then the rest of the country must be homeless( I only wish I was that poor. He didn’t go to school on scholarships. I Saudi Prince paid for and got him into Harvard.
