Is this post a wind up
He/She doesnt seem sure of whether he/she is husband/wife. Moans about paying money for kids but spends more money trying to have more kids.
Apologies if it is for real but the posts seem to contradict each other.Tallyhoh! Stopped Smoking October 2000. Saved £29382.50 so far!0 -

I would say it's a perfectly reasonable question if weighted slightly by the personal issues with his ex which he is trying to keep out of the picture.... not to mention some replies being tainted by their own father-less experiences, not really relevent to the question.... c'mon guys!
Neither helpful nor non-judgemental dotstar!you helped create those kids mate.....you pay for them!! :mad:
I think OP needs to look into what extra money they would be entitled to and get a clearer picture, as they would be entitled to tax credits, must get family allowance, and doesn't say if current OH works either. Is this an option.
Unless of course OP was just having a rant and it was all hypothetical questions?! If you really want help to work out how you could cope, and you really want to work then elaborate hun.I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....(it's part of my charm!)0 -
Zara I think you may be right....
I was going to answer them but to be honest as a single WORKING mum to 3 boys, 2 of which I don't receive a penny for this post made my blood boil!!!!
In another post shim (she/him) state's that they can't work! won't work more like!!!

I would normally agree with you here but I dont think this particular OP is for real, especially as in previous posts he has a "lovely husband" & is spending money on IVF treatment for more children??Tallyhoh! Stopped Smoking October 2000. Saved £29382.50 so far!0 -
Check the previous posts...very odd.0

husband and wife using the same id - this would explain the reference to wife + husband.
the link is from a post in 2006 - time to have two children together in that time
the quote is from jan 2007 - their work situation could have changed.
this was posted early this morning + contradicts them seeing their kids once a month

if it is genuine - the csa add up the total household income - theres a protected amount of income - out of whats left theyll take some for current maintenance payments and a percentage of whats left for arrears.
you will be better off working.0
