    A pwc whose children have become adults and therefore isn't able to claim benefit for any longer had no excuse not to work full time. With the now flexibility to move if living in a too expensive area I can't see how even on a lore paid job one couldn't afford a 2 bed flat. pecs do have the choice to go back working full time before their kids are 18 to gain previous experience. They have the choice to study at night to gain qualifications before their kids turn 18. Single parenting is not an affliction only make things maybe a bit harder for some.

    Hi thanks for the replys.
    Just to add the NRP will never and has never offered a home to ds. We have been seperated 17 year nearly now and even when I was really ill he wouldnt allow ds to stay over even though he lived alone in 2 bedroom house. Im definately on my own helping ds through uni but I dont mind at all. Thats my ex's loss
    Cherish those you have in your life because you never know when they won't be there anymore.

    No matter how you feel, get up, dress up & never give up.
