A single parent with 2 children, paying rent in Area 1, might receive a Supported Living Payment before tax of about $900 per week. That's all taxable income and about $600 of it is taxed at the second tax rate of 17.5%.
Which means they're trying to rent a family home, cover utility bills, and feed 3 people for about $750. All while dealing with a permanent disability serious enough to stop them from ever getting a job.
