Lots of ppl do, may it be family, extended family, close friends ect.So the alternative is accepting young relatives in care. I would work round it personally. work less hours and take the child benefits and other help available but that's just my opinion.
I do understand what Facehugger is saying and No in some circumstances its not possible, maybe I'm bias with regards to kinship caring.
But Helena is right, there is alot of help for both the carer and child , support workers , some financial help, courses ( paid for) to help the carer understand the trauma, theraputic parenting courses, all kinds of safety courses ect.
The child/children aren't just dropped off and that's it!
im not being argumentative or anything, but this sodding family is in a far more privileged position than most! Doesn't SFP work from home, AFP doesn't work, PP Fencing works, yes but.. he has labourers working for him, so he could be available if needed, don't know about the other family members, I'm just trying to point out, they could help with the children if they wanted!
I'll get off my soap box now...
Sorry they just really piss me off! ( price family I mean) bunch of cunts
