Moving in with dad...?

little_evo

HI thanks to all who have replied, and yes i understand personal views about standards of living etc, but i did ask from a professional view. To be fair again i do understand the realisation that yes although my dad lives in a large house by himself and yes perhaps there may be people on a waiting list to be rehomed etc. But while he is paying full rent and council tax i don't see the problem of him living there.
Perhaps from a "personal view" those who need to be rehomed for larger living space would not be in a position to pay the rent and council tax as my dad. There are plenty of 3-4 bed houses in the area that are boarded up, that i am sure could fit the criteria of these "larger" families.

As far as i am aware my mum was never on the rent book as it were and it was solely in my dads name. I only stated perhaps from a sentimental view that yes it has been the family home for "x" amount of years.

And like i stated rather than my dad be moved to sheltered accomodation or maisonette etc (which would probabalay break him anways) and the fact that my sister is being forced out of the privately rented accomodation for which she lives in at the moment, would it not be best if she could move in with dad and look after both of them under one roof and how would that affect any benefits she of my dad gets?

And thank you Blackpooll Saver for your kind comments and thoughts..appreciated

Why does someone always have to come on and be unpleasant, the OP asked questions nicely, no need to make remarks about the rent.

You are welcome to your viewpoint. Please note, however, that the issue of whether full rent was paid was brought up initially by the OP. If you view my response to the OP as "unpleasant" then may I suggest that it's perhaps not safe for you to venture onto some of the other threads on this board: many posters are far more abrupt than I am and you may find yourself weeping in a dark corner.;)
