I don't think it's a reasonable assumption at all..
So many people are fighting to get payments...

I would always assume that any man I had children with would choose to support them, but maybe that's just me.

That's how it should be, I really wish it was..

He has never taken any responsibility for the children...

Elle, don't bother responding to them as they are benefit baiting. You get what you're entitled to and that's all that matters.

As per usual, the powers that be are using scapegoats to try and deflect attention from the fact that they, the government, have no control over the economy whatsoever. As in the past they go for the weakest and have no voice, which in the west, are those who receive social security. They use degoratory terms like "welfare", "handouts", and "burden" to demonise any who receives assistance and pit those who should know better against those with the least. What I do find amusing however is the ones that do the baiting usually receive some kind of assistance from the government themselves.

Thank you for that, i'm happy to humour them...

No one will ever make me feel bad for having my family or looking after them the way I do...

I've had it all here, have been called a bad mother, been told i'm lying over my medical condition, lying over my medication, scrounger, you name it i've had it..
Doesn't bother me, I have thick skin as my Mother was a bully too,
I just think it's so sad that they buy this carp from the government and that in this day and age it is deemed acceptable to bully online, even when people have disibilities and other obstacles to overcome..

Yes, you are right they claim too, I wonder if their strong, short sighted opinions are because they are unhappy with their own situations.

Indeed she does. Hence the refusal of DLA....

Certainly I am not unhappy with my situation. We have more than enough money each month for our needs. However we have it by our own endeavors, not by having children we can't afford etc. We will never be in the position of relying on hugely inflated child related benefits to support us. You say you get £800+ a MONTH cash simply because you have children.

Thank goodness we now have a government brave enough to stop all this.

So why have three?

The only part of my situation that I'm unhappy with is the amount of cash that gets doled out to work shy, lazy gits who seem to have the idea that it's their right to go from cradle to grave doing as little as possible whilst still enjoying a decent standard of living while the rest of us mugs pay the bills.

If Elle isn't receiving any maintenance for her children from her husband then, personally, I don't think that she is receiving all that she's entitled to and that's a disgrace.

What Elle doesn't seem to be entitled to at present is DLA.

Current basic state pension £107.45

Pension credit single person £142.70

I exaggerated - 40% higher.

Plus of course rent and Council tax paid.

(Of course, if the ONLY income someone has got is basic State Pension, then they will have it made up to PC levels....but that in itself is not fair, imho. People who have paid in should get more than those who have not).
