I am deeply upset by your comments here. While this is my story and an open forum you are of course entitled to post, however your mixing up facts and putting together the information rather twistedly.
I don't feel like trying to explain it all to you again.
Yes I tell it my way, as I see it, and you may disagree but you don't need to be rude to other people either.
Over many years my life has been on here. Yes I have a 3 bedroom house, and yes I could downsize if necessary, however when my tenancy was made it was a different housing, by the council and I have a right to stay for as long as I need as long as I am paying my bills and keeoit in good repair. The spare room only just fits a small bed and chest of drawers, no room for a wardrobe. So it's not as if I am in a palatial home. In fact the room sizes are deemed too small these days.
Anyway here I am again trying to Explain but what is the point because you already have your opinion and it is rather twisted.
I don't think I will bother acknowledging or responding to you anymore.
All you have done is stir the sewage.When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.0 -

Oh I will say one more thing?
Would you prefer I made them go back home to their house and let them be murdered and raped? Because the police have advised that they don't return.
The firebrigade has changed the front door so they can't be firebombed.!!!!
If swearing came up on here my next words would be choice.
Very choice.
Just go away! I am doing my best in very stressful times.

DS and GF need to push themselves they need to find 2nd jobs and push there earnings up there is plenty of little jobs around leafleting ,cleaning and so on it seems its excuse after excuse as to why they cant stand on their own two feet and be decent hard working members of society
I dont apologise as there are many people working hard many hours a day to make ends meet and this situation seems to yet again rely on everyone else providing everything for them as their right
its not always that easy to downsize anyway as the majority of councils/housing associations have far more 3 bed properties than 2 beds.
Where I live every row of 6-10 houses only have either end as 2 beds all the others are 3.
Yes you are entitled to your opinion but how you are expressing it is just nasty( in my opinion of course).0 -
So I am at work. Practiced all my calm gratitude stuff as I walked in so that I can leave the negative start to my day at the door.
Brought a shiny blue 4 balloon to bounce around outside. Have my fun sewing related shoes on and my logo shirt.

Eh? Where did I tell you what to think? I was commenting on your, what comes across as, self righteous moral judgements.
What is it they say about walking a mile in someone else's shoes?
Sorry for derailing your thread Mooloo, I won't comment on this person's attitude again. As someone else says, you are very brave to tell us all about your life and I'm sure, like me, there are many people reading it and hoping each day is going to be a good one for you.0 -

Interesting what some people opinions of ‘mollycoddling’ are.
It seems to me from your posts that you don’t work (maybe due to health issues) but spend your life dropping off your children and picking them up at all hours of the day.
Maybe your dog getting a blueberry facial and a massage could be considered by some as over the top?
I simply put these out there to suggest we are all different and as you have put it out there on the Internet I am apparently allowed to comment.0
