    I wouldn't waste your breath - these parents of perfect children live in a world of their own.

    And what world do you live in ONW/Dunroamin? A world of benefits and handouts? Not all of us are entitled to benefits and handouts?

    No I didn't answer your question.

    That is what I'm telling you to work out what is needed for maintain a cheap healthy diet - it's what I have to do too and then work out for you give from there.
    Here dead we lie because we did not choose
    To live and shame the land from which we sprung.
    Life, to be sure, is nothing much to lose,
    But young men think it is,
    And we were young.

    I am not in a great financial position to support my child much and she has been lucky to receive a scholarship.

    So your child gets full student loans, maintenance grants and a scholarship. Lucky daughter.


    Sorry Dunroamin wasted my breath! X

    Oh no please don't think that. We parents of kids who get hardly any money are really grateful for your words of wisdom....

    Thank You So Much

    Sorry no time to chat - training course to get to.

    So glad I went to university as a mature student years ago!

    So sorry I have suffered from serious illness over the years too!

    Getting my life back on track as I always have though!

    Ps don't worry I have spent years working and paying my taxes despite dealing with illness and bringing my children up on my own for quite some time!

    Two very successful children too I might add.

    Son has had his own house since he was about twenty three blah blah blah!

    My diet at university consisted of; super noodles, chips, cheese, ready meals and all sorts of other cheap foods.

    Now I put on a little weight over uni but I am still resonably healthy compared to some of my peers!

    Having a low income doesn't mean you have to have a bad diet and be unhealthy. And vice versa.

    Also the emotion you are posting is linking to a site which has malware on it according to my work virus scanner.

    Why on earth would you accuse someone who's spent all her life working in professional careers of living on benefits and handouts?
