Re: Political Claptrap

accymel i did say plenty of people had valid reasons , i know a little of your situation from previous discusions but its not for me to bring them up especialy on a public forum , people die leaving one parent behind and some mothers have to leave abusive relationships like one of my ex's had to and probbaly more valid reasons but like i said there are peopel out there milking teh system and its not a small number especialy when you see some people having a child every 5 years or less just to avoid been made to get a job

i am mainly refering to the type who leave school , get pregnant by anyone then spend teh rest of tehir lives chuning out babys and die without ever doing a days work

as for you dave

you may find it hard coping but believe me i would kill to be in the position you are in right now as i would wnat nothing more than have to wory about where i was going to send my son after school instead of only seeing him a few hours each week

swings and roundabouts mate

Re: Political Claptrap

Well I was a single parent for a while and I certainly didn't choose for my late husband to die in hospital.

Of course it's swings and roundabouts but although I don't have any facts and figures to prove it I think you will find the steroetyping you do of single parents ( ie teenage mothers) represents a very tiny minority. You never ever see a teenage fatherless male scrounging off the state do you

Re: Political Claptrap

U need to go round to rindy's to watch Jezza mate, his main bugbear is the fact that many young adults - quite capable to work but would rather excuse themselves on drinking, drugs, gambling, playing ps games all day long & have sex without a condom with little disregard for the consequences - but thats a different thread Chav!!

If anyone really wants to make a career choice of being a lone parent its not as easy as it looks!!

I was being sarcastic and referring to the fact there are probably more teenage fatherless males out there who can't be arsed working and live off benefits than there are teenage girls who delibarately get themselves pregnant to avoid work and live off the state.
