So to the point of commiting to it, how many people are that confident that they will be still in employment in 14 years time or have £175k to hand?

I will not be and you will be paying my pension:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

TO FREDDIE_SNOWBITS - How dare you comment on how we bring up our son you ignorant, miserable old man!!! Have you got nothing better to do in your life!!! What gives you the right to judge on parenting skills???

We have our son at the top of our thoughts, that’s why we wanted to try and give him the best chance in life as possible and that is exactly the reason why we didn't let him start and make friends and then have to take him out, so he has not made any friends or settled in, so we are not disrupting him. He has only been to the nursery and all his friends there are not staying on at that school anyway but we still have contact with the friends he made at nursery out of school, so they are still good friends and that will continue even though they will be attending different state schools. We have got him into a small village school so he will be starting new like all the others.

What a BIG issue you are making, everyone has circumstances happen in their life which they were not expecting and due to this people have to make life changes. What about the children who move about with their parents in the army, children adapt as long as they have a loving and caring home which our son has. But I stress we are NOT putting our son through any changes he hasn't even STARTED the school !!!!!

We asked a general question about where we stood about paying the late notice fees when he wasn't attending, we are more than happy to pay some penalty but £1700 seems very harsh!

We have noticed that you are on the computer everyday, why don't you go and get a job and get off the benefits which we are paying for you or maybe concentrate on looking after your own brats, which I feel so sorry for having a miserable father like you!!!

GET A LIFE!!!!

Everyone who is on the internet every day has no job and lives on benefits while their brats run riot? Wow, i better go quit my job, sign on and get myself knocked up with a little delinquent. And here the longest i've went unemployed since i turned 16 was 2 weeks - even when i was studying full time. I've been doing it all wrong :eek:

And no, not having a dig. Yes i realise you may not have meant it in that light. Luckily your words are water and i am the proverbial ducks back :rotfl:

Just do what i do, refuse to be insulted by anyone. Its really easy once you get the hang of it although i'm bad for winding people up.

Thank you Summertime for you kind words, I would have responded a lot earlier last night, but alas, I have other more important things to do, like run my own business and meeting sponsors and guests at events, building up networks.

As from being miserable, I rather enjoyed it last night, and everyday I wake up with a grin so wide, it would make Batman’s Joker look small. As for your general question, that you wanted the best for your son, being rash in decisions is not one of them, then being rash is a terse response is not another attribute to fly off with. Yes, your husband may be made redundant, but you have already paid the nest terms fees, and you will see I have already mentioned this, why if you have paid the fees, do you now not want to use that facility? If your husband is made redundant, he will, I am sure get another position soon. I am also sure that others will assist you in this matter.

As for being on the computer, I suggest you get off the Daily Mail website very quickly, remarks that I am on benefits is rather low. If I wish to use my computer, I shall do so, without fear of your retort. As for looking after what you call brats, I do actually, normally I like the foster kids the best, as they get better looked after with me, than their miserable uninterested parents. No doubt as I know, some are only one decent missed meal away from anarchy.

Same as me, I am only one missed meal away from anarchy. In the end, if one of Maslow’s hierarchical needs is missing, then our level of self actualisation fails.
As unholy angel has said, you may like some of the answers, you may not like some of the answers.

Oh, and yes the green light next to this thread means to some that I am on benefits and my computer all the time.

Ignoring trolls, like FS, is by far the easiest option, do not take the bait as it only encourages these sad people.

Your above post started well but then descended into a childish rant no better than those you accuse.

I am glad that OP can make rash decisions because of a threat of redundancy. What would happen if OH actually was amde redundeant, and then got a job within a few weeks, not only have they lost the fees, but it would be dificult to get back in at the school!

Then the mess with moving the child.

As I said before, you cannot opt out, then in. In all this no thought is given to the child, except that in a rash decision, they're pulled.

TO: FS - ALL YOUR REMARKS HAVE BEEN LOW!!!!
Your answers were fine it was when you started saying nasty comments for no reason at all, i.e. brats, greedy parents and generally being rude. We were always being polite and was only asking for advice which I would never use this site again for.

One last thing, you are now telling me to do the exact thing you said not to do as per your mail above ‘not to mess the child about‘. We would keep him in for the term and then when husband loses his job which is nearly for certain he is going to, we would then have to pull him out AND MESS HIM ABOUT and jobs these days are hard to get so it is not guaranteed !!! And for your information we do not have anyone who could help us we have lost our parents and even if they were here we would not ever expect anyone to help us!!!

I wont be writing again or EVER asking for advice on this site again just to get abused.

1) You LOST the moral high ground when you abused FS. If you were staying (instead of probably just getting yourself a new username and hoping no one notices) I would advise you to check someone's previous posts if you are annoyed with them. You'll soon find out whether they are a wind up merchant or not by what they have said to others. For example by checking my posts you would find out that while I am usually quite mild with a good sense of humour , I do have a bit of a cutting edge and don't suffer fools gladly and I hate unfairness.

2) It seems to me that you were happy to pay the nursery fees but have baulked at paying for the rest of his education. Maybe the nursery had a date you had to cancel by and you missed it whereas your fellow parents managed to do it right. Maybe there's a policy where they expect children who attend the nursery to continue with their education at the school.

3) If you aren't greedy why do you react so badly when someone says that you are?

You might get more sympathy when/if your husband actually loses his job rather than just being under threat of it. The school must hear sob stories all the time from people who have simply changed their minds or are moving their child because their friends are moving theirs!!!

Anyway these are rhetorical questions since you won't be back. :rotfl:
