This just popped up in my feed. Talking about someone that had an abortion as they wouldn't be able to afford the child without credits. It's not just an isolated issue, a charity says they've had a huge increase in women contacting about abortions as now they won't be able to afford to have any more children. I'm not sure what the answer is but this is very worrying

Two words.................Winterbourne View.

Its got nothing to do with ambition and everything to do with the people in the care system being at risk because they are being cared for by people who are doing the job as a last resort or really dont want to be in the job.

Raise the wages and treat it like a job of worth and it minimizes the risk.
