Too many kids think that a life on benefits is an acceptable career choice, time for a change!
I remember a few years ago Lindsay, a young child was knocked down and killed in Ossy, she was one child in a family of seven kids, the only thing the feckless father could say was he'd lose the child benefit, this is certainly the way forward
