i think that it's down to individual choice & cases. Genuine ppl who recieve benefits are fine & in need of them for 1 reason or another. What really annoys me are ppl who aren't genuine. A neighbours daughter is such a case. She is 24/25 with a 6 year old son. She hasn't done a thing since leaving school, no jobs or further education. She lived with her mum up until about 12 months ago. She has all her bills paid & is always buying new clothes. She has the nerve to tell me how lucky iam to b married with 3 children & work part time!! I have to work nights because child care costs are way too expensive & stu's wages are too high to claim any benefits. He has to work 13 hour days 5 days per week to keep the roof over our head. I go to work for a bit of pocket money for us all.God she makes me mad
I know this probably sounds really bad & don't want to cause offence to anyone, but we'd b better off if we didn't work. We are lucky to have jobs & healthy children so have no intention of being frauds to get ahead if you get me :smile: Benefits are there for a reason, not to be abused like some ppl do. Take no notice of what some ppl say they are just ignorant
