    Many businesses fail unfortunately, however, your daughter owes over £30,000 to ' pay day loans/council tax/rent/gas/electric bills, water bill, mobile bill, credit cards, catalogue etc......' hardly the types of creditors connected to a business.

    I think it's more that your 23 yr old expects something for nothing and with your kind of attitude, it's hardly surprising.

    Where does the op say that???

    Other thread - her daughter will go bankrupt (once she's been home long enough to file local, so no travel).

    Not logical? Really?

    Paying out more and more and getting nothing back in any shape or form - my attitude is very logical.

    I would prefer my tax to directly benefit my daughter when she needs it and not some lazy bums who have never ever worked.
    I'm sure you would, and I'm sure the taxpayers of New Jersey, who subsidized my education for 18 years, would have liked my tax money to go to their "lazy bums" instead of the UK's.
    After Sandy, New Jersey really needs it.

    Sorry, I haven't read the whole thread, but if she can't get anything for public transport, she could tell them she drives over and get the whatever pence per mile petrol rate for there and back (which probably won't cover the cost, but will be better than nothing!)

    Have been on those forums for a while and have seen fair amount of nonsense but....some of the [STRIKE]replies I got [/STRIKE][defences I present] here are just simply amazing.

    Slight correction.
