Child free people being told they deserve less yet being expected to do more!

[JenniferBooth]

Has anyone on here experienced any of this?

1. Employment..........being expected to work the Christmas shifts (because the parents want the time off) even though you did it the previous year or the last few years..
2. Family Being expected to take on the care of a child even though you have chosen not to have your own because of emotionally charged comments like " i feel sorry for the child cos none of his family members want him"
3. Housing. particularly social housing, where if you dont have children you are only entitled to a small flat or a bedsit, and God forbid if you happen to live in a bigger place you are told that it is your moral duty to downsize for families.
4. Being asked at a job interview if you have children and then being asked "why? Dont you like responsibility" when you say no. Happened to me back in 2004

The latest one on a social housing thread. Apparently its ok for someone to be kicked out of their SH home after caring for their elderly parents and all living in same home so i asked if the poster also thought that parents should pay bedroom tax straight away if a child dies. No Thats a special exception.

TO CLARIFY its a horrible thing to go through but IMO the two situations should both be treated with respect

And now................
