This is going to be far too expensive to do. How on earth do I get receipts if I give my parents money? And how do I get receipts when I just have a direct debit for when my phone bill comes out? I don't recieve paper statements for it.How do you know I don't use my DLA for care?

But KK provides care for her husband so he gets the care he needs. She could go through the direct payments system if she wanted to put everybody through all that hassle and extra costs. This way is cheaper and achieves the same end.0 -

And is it really any of their business?
