to think that people who choose to have more children whilst living in social housing shouldn't expect to be given a bigger place?

[balsamicfundamentalist]

I am a member of another pregnancy forum and there is a woman there who has just had her 5th child (by choice). Neither her nor her partner work and she is complaining that the council will not giver them a bigger house (she is in a 3 bed). All the other members are sympathising with her but I don't understand why. Surely if you choose to have a child when you know your home is not big enough, you shouldn't expect the council to give you a bigger one, especially when it is sought after subsidised housing?

'wouldnt want a benefit claimant doing my housework either to be honest....they might nick me best china and sell it down the market for half a crown/or their latest fix'

I call HOUSE. Benefit claiment = druggie. I hope all those old people and disabled people are aware ignorant DM readers think they are all druggies for getting enefits.

AnyoneforTennis She would sell her children im sure, before she lowered herself

I want a benefits bingo card!!! Im entitled to one, and i want a clip board too.

Kal You just won a goat!

do work nights, have a degree, and love winding people on here up who got nothing better to do....havent been on here for months as have a busy life and dont have time for reading the drivel on here non stop like some do.....am 46 work in a busy hospital , actually saved a life last night, not many if any of u can say that. have travelled extensively all over the world with my hard earned cash and have also had many sad episodes in my life, which im not disclosing to any of u as anything that has happened to me cant possibly be as bad as anything u lot have experienced.....good night.....never to work again as off to spend my lottery millions........

yeah right. Saved life my arse

Yes, missgrohl I think leaving would be best.

Ooooo get you

a broken ankle that needs a bone graft leaves u unable to work, manual work as in builder, for upto 6 months fyi

not a teacher actually,.....didnt know teachers worked overnight shifts....doh

[Sighs]

This would be a good opportunity to explain irony to you.

At no point, did I actually think you were employed an English teacher.

Traditionally being an English teacher has required a good command of spelling, punctuation and grammar. This would be a job for which you would be ill-suited, given your hopelessly poor spelling, grammar and haphazard use of punctuation.

It is for this reason that I made the IRONIC suggestion that you were employed in this capacity.

It is a bit like when it is raining and someone says 'Lovely weather isn't it?' They don't actually like the rain, they are using irony.

I appreciate that this might be difficult to take it in, but it will save us both a long and tedious exchange of messages.

Did you finish spending your lottery millions already ?

havent laughed so much in months .....thanks to all

HaHaHa!
Couldn't leave could you, just had to come back and justify your wee place in the world.
Ahh!

That life you saved last night?? What if it was a benefit claimant?

if he can breathe he can work, you don't have to walk to work a checkout. Lazy and entitled.

what an utter idiot

Saved several lives (Registered Nurse), delivered over 500 babies (midwife) and now a carer to my autistic child so feck off - you are not the only person who works hard. I have done more than my fair share in my time.

Then again you are just here on a wind up as you put it - am amazed you have the time in your noble life.

Someone gave you a job in a hospital, even though you seeingly cannot spell simple words such as 'you' and 'are' properly?

Blimely, the NHS is really going downhill.

I have a far more important job. I send all the scroungers noodles and egg fried rice, so they don't have to bother cooking for their sprogs

I have also travelled, although I am not sure why that is relevent?

He could still work!!!! Find himself a different job!

Oh has she gone already

Lost the argument and flounced

hope we dont meet you at our hospital given the spelling and grammar

i'm bored now - when do i get my goat?

please have all the benefits u want , council houses u want, anything, just dont believe all u read.......everyone deserves what they need , dont begrudge anybody anything.....i truly have seen some awful things in my job and wouldnt wish anyone any harm......feel abit awful now that i have wound some of u up....my grammer may be awful but not everyone is perfect...

actually saved a life last night

If you are a DJ and it was 'from a broken heart' then that doesn't count.

Dooin
Please may I have some noodles?

Just realised, fed the dcs, forgot to feed me!
