question at any specific person/family.
i do understand that a person is entitled to go about fertility treatment and have IVF etc solo or as part of a couple or whatever.
what I don’t understand is why then she is entitled to all the benefits of a single parent?
Before anyone starts eating me, I mean in the sense that she chose to do this alone, she chose to spend a lot of money on doing so.
Myself and my husband have 2 children and our childcare costs are over 1500 a month!
I guess I can’t really understand why she is entitled to more because she is technically single ? Even tho she chose this and has more help than most couples with children.

I 100% agree, this country is full of freeloaders.

If it was up to me anyone that works full time should get free childcare, if you don't work then you should get duck all.

Exactly this!
I had to give up full time employment once my child arrived cuz we had no choice.
Would I love to be in work yes, do I love that I'm home with my child also yes.
But everyone would have a better quality of life with two adult incomes instead of one

It’s infuriating isn’t it & i think this thing with the website & bookings is because she wants better control of what she takes on herself. She just needs one paying job here & there to top up her handouts & pay for her weekends away so if people contact her via PM she can suss them out before committing.
It really bothers me that she spent the best part of a month doing nothing while the girls spent half of it taking up heavily subsidised creche places & she made sure to use every possible minute of it.

Now she's relying on the half blind dog to mind them.

I’m just thinking of all the things my daughter scaled at their age & even younger. She could climb as soon as she could crawl. If she couldn’t get up she would find a way & she made my jaw drop many times at how quickly she would figure something out. Those girls & that garden terrifies me after seeing the way her dad had the gate secured & how low the walls are. There’s no way she has a constant eye on them while prepping food.

I wouldn’t take my eyes off them the front gate is broken & secured with a pot when they’re out. I wouldn’t trust that with a house right on a t junction.

when I was three I was being minded by my grandparents, typical three year old, escaped the garden and unfortunately caused a crash on a nearby road ( no one was hurt thankfully). Safe to say my mam never let them watch me again 😳
Point being, kids are so unpredictable, you can’t time them, they could be gone in a second

Oh my god, I’m so glad you were ok. It really only takes seconds. I’m sure no one would have guessed you might get out.
If a child finds a way, they’ll go for it without giving it a second thought as they’re not aware of danger. Not sure Lisa is in a position physically to act fast if needed
