so dont go round makeing stories up thinking 'oh how did they survive'
right...
have you checked www.entitledto.com?
is your husband here legally or illegally? can he work? what are your exact circumstances? are any of you unable to work? and is your sister going to be with you for the forseeable future?
the bits in red - what you don't seem to understand is that you're being very very rude and as such, nobody is likely to help you. your previous posts have contained so much conflicting information that nobody could possibly give you any accurate advice at all.
you are very young to be going through all this and it must be really stressful for you...but if you come asking for advice, a)be prepared that it might not be what you want to hear and b)try to give your information accurately and don't change your story every 5 minutes. the majority of people aren't here to judge you and if you are genuinely a 21 year old woman going through all of this, I think a lot of people will be more than willing to try and help - if you are honest.Wins since June: iPod shuffle 1gb, Samsung g800, cinema ticket, lush retro giftbox, 2x mp3 downloads, a big box of food (???)0 -
22 actually...I am very confused and worried...about my future i am getting income support and child benefit it adds up to around £134 pounds a week.but that helps towards the bills shopping and travel fares.i want to be able to save some extra money on the side i want to learn how to drive and even buy an afforadble car but how can i save with that if its going every week.my husband does not work nor do i.i want to work part time or fuol time in retails of some normal job will it help me save a bit or will it still be the same as what im getting also if my husband worked partime would that change things.and if i work do i get help with someone looking after my child who is just 1 years old i need help i am so confused im only 22 and want to have a secure futre with at least a few thousands pounds in my bank but im not getting any richer than £300.0

Don't rise to it - use the 'report abuse' button to everyone who is nasty to you or posting comments to get a rise
Just get the help you're entitled to ask for - and don't be put off posting because they really aren't worth it

if you actually read the thread, you will see that several people have asked her for the information needed and she has not responded, or she has to some questions and then been very rude and failed to answer the others. Look through all the other threads - not even a hint of consistency.
"Just get the help you're entitled to ask for " - if she gave information and didnt decide to change her mind every 10 minutes, she would get help.Wins since June: iPod shuffle 1gb, Samsung g800, cinema ticket, lush retro giftbox, 2x mp3 downloads, a big box of food (???)0 -

if you will give all the relevant details, and stick to them, i'm sure there will be several people on here who are willing to help you!!!
maybe it was a typo, maybe not. just tell it how it is and don't keep changing your story!Wins since June: iPod shuffle 1gb, Samsung g800, cinema ticket, lush retro giftbox, 2x mp3 downloads, a big box of food (???)0
