because to be honest i have so much on my plate I hadn't actually noticed this was the general perception before reading mumsnet (and contributing)
and it seems it is resented I can earn up to £100 on top of my allowance whilst claiming carers allowance.
Why is it so awful? I have a degree, did have a life of my own, but actually NOW I spend 24 hrs a day looking after my dependent and looking forwards for them and making sure they have the most 'normal' life possible. Really is it that awful? Is my life to be resentful of really, THAT much?
I feel a life swap program coming on...
