dd is 15 and severely disabled.
she will be in full time education until at least 19.
so the government are talking about lowering the cb to 16
I presume EMA is going
no CB = no CTC ??

so how am I expected to be her carer on £56 a week??
how do I get a job, when I have to be here if she is sick, and in school holidays.
also if the LEA win and move her to the crappy local sn college I will loose her respite and have to take her to and from college.....

do I just dump her in residential at a cos of 1000's a week.

my sw has told me dd's respite is safe, as they don't take away what you already have...
but that only works if she stays at her school post 16 if they move her we will loose it!!
but she will not move
