    Children and benefits from social security
    We read in the paper that children under 18 living with grand parents who are over 65 receive SS benefits.
    How do you go about applying for benefits for the children?
    Is there a phone number you can call?
    Is their any help for raising children from social security?
    Is their any extra help financially for children from the state of Idaho?
