    Dunno, what were your intentions when you planned the pregnancy?

    don't blame gavB79 for asking the question.

    i got pregnant and decided it wouldn't be right for anybody at the time. So made the tough decision. i never considered that i would get any help and felt it would be misery for all one small wage.

    It's outrageous how the government spends tax payers money on all of these benefits.


    But of course it's ok for all the people who are out of work and do not want to want to claim. It must be really good to be in your perfect world.

    Happy to pay genuine job seekers, but disagree why we should pay for people to give birth.

    trouble is jonno, when you go to work these days it can be a real slog. haven't had a pay rise in 5 years, pay for everything.

    Don't blame anyone for not being in a hurry to go to work. The OP is pregnant now and noone will employ a pregnant woman.

    Hope she has a healthy baby and does her best to getting training etc when she can.


    Good luck for the future.

    One of my other gripes is that the government is happy to give people so many benefits they are better off staying at home and living off of our taxes.
