those who say instead of ciggies or drink put away money for your child how about thinking perhaps some dont drink smoke or take drugs but still struggle its ok being in a cusy job getting paid over £30.000 pa and get child benefit of what ever a month depending on how many chidren.
i would rather see a threshhold on child ben of £25000.00 then all that wasted money can go back into the government and settle a little defesit! and hopefully lower tax's in some years then that money can be redistrubuted into schools! but thats my take on it.
any ways i'm not attcking my local primary i would like to join but when its as hard as it is at my local primary it puts off allot of parents that would join if it were easier untill then us parents have to deal with the outcome and complaints the parents in my local primary make go unoticed and shrugged off by the committe it seems.
Those people who have the 'cusy (sic) jobs' are the ones that worked bloody hard to get them. They are the ones subsidizing things so that your children can take part. Instead of slagging them off you should be on your hands and knees thanking them for doing what you can't.0 -

Fang - you are really starting to annoy me. you know NOTHING about atrixblue or his/her circumstances. I am starting to think you are just an offensive person and your appearance on a thread heralds the degeneration of that thread.
before you accuse other posters of slagging people off - take a good hard look at yourself!!!!!! I find you irritating and objectionable and am considering reporting you to the abuse team.
Clean up your act or I will report you.0 -

personally i think your a whole 99p short of a £1. your delusional, what on earth makes you think that your the higherachy above everyone, yeh people work hard (so did i when i was working i went through regular training to better myself and myskills) i offered family and friends help when they needed it but didnt think any less of them because they were on benefits. obviously you need a good look into the light of reality i dont know what drugs your on (if any) but your certainly not with it in term of real life struggles! perhaps you should put that silver spoon down out of your mouth walk out your front door without your wallet purse give up you job for a few months and go on benefits to see how REAL LIFE (caps just for you) works!
as farr as i'm aware that nursery school meals arent free even if your on benefits! also those school who only offer half day tuition and then if you want to your child can stay all day for £7.50 perday per child. factor in £2.65 for school meals and 50p per child for tuck in the mornings your talking well over £10 per week! again you know absolutly nothing!0 -

Silver spoon? I come from an ordinary family. I've put myself through nearly two degrees, worked since I was 13, and have a very strong work ethic. So no, I won't be giving up my job thanks. And while we're on the subject, you seem to think that those with good jobs have just been handed to them, so why don't you get one? Always blaming someone else.0 -

You need to get a grip. Far too much self importance and nothing to back it up. If you can't take debate then you might want to retire to a darkened room to take the vapours.0 -
Why doesn't he have any savings? Why can his OH work? All the extras come to about 50p per week, maximum. There isn't a single person who can't afford that, and if they claim they can't, then they shouldn't have children. But I'm sure that you've chipped in to help your grandchildren? Right?
not every one can afford to save as they earn N.M.W!!! perhaps meritatens son has a disability wich requires the care of his partner and thios may be the reason why she cannot work! plus his OH will be looking after her sons children! even tuck would out weight the amount you think extra's cost!0 -

Why would you need to send a child to nursery if you weren't working?0 -

Why do they need money for tuck? It's a luxury is it not?0 -

believe me i would still have a job if i wasnt too ill to work! it was not my decision to not work but that of two doctors!
you put yourself through education but these days education especially university and college placements hard hard to get fund and stay in! there is no certainty that you will get a job that you train for these dasy have you been keeping up with reality obviously not!
good for you you have a job, but if anything happens in your future that you come to rely on benefits your gunna hit the ground with a rather nasty bump.
you wont give up your job as you know youll end up like millions of others strapped for cash faceing reposseions of homes. oh and the more savings you have the less likely you are to get any benefits untill youve exhausted your savings to under the threshhold! again you know nothing.
your posts proves that you have forgotten exactly how much living costs as youve enjoyed the luxery life.0 -
