Struggling with money because you've got kids

So the OP is happy the way his/her life is and he/she is moaning because there are only cooking shows on the tv for families?
Almost funny.

Op, I think you will find that families are more of a focus on money saving tv programmes as its usually frowned upon to starve children....If I had no money and could not afford to eat, I wouldn't eat. But you cannot impose that upon kids.
As an aside, lulu's digging around at your previous posts just shows how much of a vile person you are to be so malicious as to ruin ex's lives by saddling them with debt. I actually feel sorry for you. How horrible to live with such a twisted and bitter view,it must be exhausting.0 -

You're struggling because you've got kids! Don't have them, if you can't afford them. You're in horrendous debt because you've got kids.
All these cooking shows about money saving meals to feed your family. What about money saving meals for yourself and you partner? Everything seems to be focused on parents and families.
Why don't they ever focus on a couple that doesn't have any children who are struggling but have wisely chosen not to have children.
I consider myself to have a family. My family is me, my girlfriend and our dog, but we get treated like second-class citizens because we don't have any children.
