Some women in Lithuania, in order to get more money from social insurance during their "mother's holiday", cheated their social record by paying bigger social insurance fees and signaling that their salaries are bigger, thus getting more money from social insurance. This way of fraud was so effective that some of them managed to get a hundred thousdand dollars a year, which is huge money in Lithuania.

This year, however, such women are threatened by jail for comitting fraud against the social insurance and hundreds of young women(along with their babies in some cases) might go to jail. On one hand, they broke a law and are responsible for it, on the other hand, what would become of their children if their mothers went to jail for ten years or so while they were growing up? How to solve such a practical and ethical problem?
