hi
so here it is, i have a cert in natural sciences 10 good gcse's am in my final year of a health science diploma and a Bsc hons with the open university, my dh is studying graphic design and is in his final year.
basically we live of benefits, £120 per week, £350 tax credits for 2 kids and around £100 child benefit and our rent is paid for us
well basically am fed up and want to get a job, i worked out that if i could get something with a salary of around 14,000 per year then we would be over £500 better off each month
so am 25 which is around the same age as people coming outta uni really but am basically looking for advice on what whether I am being naive about all of this, I will need childcare 2 1/2 days a week and I don't know really how supportive dh will be once i get a job although he says he will be, he seems perfectly happy to stay on benefits until he can get a job, but i think that even if he did get a job so should i anyway as am young and able and qualified etc
did i mention i home educate, so will need to be super organised to work and then home educate at the same time so if there are any other home educators who work maybe they could give me some advice.
so help me with my confidence please
