You have claimed off the state, not only because your kids have been schooled but through their medical appointments,dental care,free prescriptions,immunizations, schoool nurse visits etc.
You havent paid for all that yourself you know.
You should be on your bended knee thanking tax payers yourself for all the money you have taken off them because they have supported your kids. Its not just about child allowance you know.

Blimey - I hope all the people who are too ill to work don't have to get down on their bended knees, heaven forbid if they have any children with disabilities - I mean all the NHS, schools, specialist schools, HB, Child related benefits

Or is it only people who are able to work and have done with minimum reliance on the state who need to bend down on their knees to you?

I have no idea the above poster (dandilion) seems to think if someone put their children through state education and their children get immunities at school via school nurse they should bend down to him on one knee

How can you really look down on an unemployed person? when you have been a taker for years yourself.?

Could you say who you are replying to.
If me, I have said in my posts, I have paid for my kids schooling through my taxes,I have never claimed benefits in money ever from the government, can you say the same. I have worked 47 years to do so. I have supported my kids. If I havent where do you think my money has gone then. A taker indeed, you have no idea what you are talking about.

I have never, ever looked down on anyone in my life mister and I bloody well resent you saying so. If I told you some of the crap jobs I have done, and had people look down on me for gutting turkeys, and tatie picking in my younger days, I worked to feed my kids, No one has the right to look down on any one,
including you.

I really struggle to understand why anyone would consider JSA preferable to ANY job. I can just about understand not working if it simply isn't financially viable, like if transport & other work costs would mean you couldn't eat and pay housing costs. But refusing a job because it doesn't pay enough *extra* cash???? Totally mad!!

Until recently, my OH and I have always earned just too much to claim any benefits and when I've looked at the figures, we'd always be better off on JSA & benefits, once travel and other work costs are taken into account. But we've never, for a second, considered not working. We scrimp, scrape and manage to survive.

The idea that we should leech off society when we are both able to work is just crazy!! :eek:
