Lets pray that he can learn to control his behaviour PDQ if this is the case, seems a strange course for someone who batters their brother and mother.

i know he has a history of violence, but it was always me and sometimes his bro, , but never anyone else, especially not children. now he is living by himself, his anger towards us has lessened, still shouts but isnt physical towards us any more. he has done anger management with youth offending team which helped him greatly

Why would you criticise .... socks asked a financial question - not your opinion on WHY her boys are in their own flat. If you're megga curious go and search her previous threads - but until then try not to be too judgemental

Sorry socks, nothing to add to the benefits query

whilst i did having something to add to the benefits queery
odd that you criticise me for criticising someone else

he lives in his own flat, because he wanted to move away from the family home, he did not get on with his twin brother, and myself. he wanted to live by his rules, and not the rules of the household
eg, to me, staying up til 4 am is not acceptable, and he would never compromise and use headphones, thus he created unbearabled tension, and arguments

Wouldnt being in the youth offending system prevent him from passing the enhanced CRB check to work with children?

When I lived in a hostel at 16, I was at college & getting IS, & HB. However, when I left education both benefits stopped, and I was only eligible for JSA as I had no family home to return to. If he doesn't do something sharpish, he'll probably lose his benefits and be told to go home, & not have the luxury of living alone.
