Do you get carers allowance?

You might be able to get carers allowance which would help hugely. I'd talk to the CAB if I were you. They are not at all judgemental and will help you find your way through the hugely complicated minefield of benefits. I think that would be a better idea than getting possibly dodgy advice off people on the internet.

so sorry i wasnt trolling if you look at any of my posts in the past you would know i dont do that. i apprectiate advice am given and would no try and upset people. i have actually been staying with the father of my children 3 nights a week but someone told me this was illegal so i didnt want to reveal too much about myself. my father is moving into residential soon and that is why i was in process of moving in to the house with father of my children. just wasnt sure what to tell my solicitor as am so scared i'll end up coming off worse in the long run.

addictedtolatte - if you're not trolling, then what the hell is your other thread from last night about?

"i have been renovating a home with the father of my children and was due to move in this month he has changed the locks unknown to me and cut communications off with me i have no idea what is wrong with him. i have been with him for 16 years and he wont provide me with an explanation. the house is in the process of becoming his due to a will settlement. the home was his fathers. do i have any right to fight a case to move into the home or have i been conned? i have invested quite a lot of money into the project and just dont know what to to do or where to turn."

Have you got a split personality?

addictedtolatte - I have seen you around quite a bit, so I was suprised to see two quite different threads posted at the same time. Unfortunately your information gathering, trying to be careful have come across as you being a bit of a troll or something.

I can kind of see the dilemma you are in and it would appear that the 'father of your kids' has treat you really badly, I hope you can get it sorted out as you do not deserve to be homeless!

I would suggest you tell your solicitor everything, YOUR solicitor is on YOUR side. You need to tell her everything so she can best help you.

I'm sorry to hear about your Dad too :(

Good Luck x
