Why Is This Happening
21 Answers
We have a benefits system that pays plenty of money, seems more so if you are foreign, but it does give you enough to live. Maybe not live the high life, but enough to eat.
I wold like to know how many of these 'parents' smoke, drink and own a mobile phone or even a car rather than feed their kids.
I think child benefit should be cut and used to fund free school dinners for all, then, all benefits should be paid for by food parcels and electric cards, no money should be changing hands.

We had well paid jobs, contributing 40% tax and paying our way. We decided to change our lifestyles but things went hideously wrong. We had five children at the time, should we have put them in care? We were offered temporary accommodation in a hostel miles away (therefore we would have had to change the kids schools). Have those of you on your high horses ever been in the position where you can barely afford to feed your family and go without food yourself or when you have NO money for 13 weeks. I used to have my head up my arse about such matters until it happened to us. Try and have some compassion for others.
