well that is very true.
i'm maybe on shakey ground here so please bear with me if this seems to have a lot of info missing but i realy cant say more.
one of the children we look after has a mother who is an alcoholic, to the point that her children didnt have clothes to go out in and used to get fed in their underwear by neighbours (there were other issues too that i wont cover), i was horrified that because her children had been removed she was put onto disability living allowance meaning that she was able to buy even more cheap strong cider on the grounds that she had "mental issues".

Its a frickin disgrace, when is this kind of crap ever gonna end. The government is on its knees money wise yet we continue to shove money down these leeches throats.
I heard my jobless wonder neighbours screaming at their kids last night because the lad had spent ÂĢ2 at the shop and now they couldn't buy fags. I was furious. Calling him a c u next tuesday and everything. They have got a massive plasma, they sit with their doors open, couches in the garden to sunbathe on. I am taking some satisfaction in the fact someone his own size cracked him last week.
The girl descirbed in this article and my scum neighbours are what is driving this country into the ground.
If this girl has woken up in a police station so many times, why the hell is she being put on a crufew, lock the tramp up, might encourage her to think about things rather than "go home and forget about it".

Not shakey ground at all.
They receive more money due to this and spend it on the very thing that adds to their problems
It`s a catch 22 situation.
I never thought that I`d go down the road of thinking about controlling how benefits are spent, (I`m a leftie) but in some circumstances, it may be necessary.

id have to move if i put up with that crap, it
sounds a complete nightmare
quote:Originally posted by Lindsxdx:
It is. We moved their when we were young and wasn't really arsed, the rent is really cheap and we have no kids or anything yet but its straight out of Shameless. When the sun came out this year it was that point I realised I'd had enough of it and by summer of next year I want out. They are disgusting. She screams "I don't give a f**k" all day, at her kids, her OH, her mates.
When I am going to work in the morning I see a really nice family getting in their car each morning taking the kids to school we say hello, I chat to the kids, the nightmare familys blinds are closed, no sign of life, I wonder if those kids every get to school. Last nights outburst really made me angry and upset for them.

lol no, shaky ground because i'm mentioning part of the reason for a child being in care, i couldnt give a stuff about the fat bloated drunken cow other than as a taxpayer.
i'm sure she'd have less of an alcohol problem if she had her benefits stopped, at least until she was locked up (again) then her only problem would be not being able to drink at all.

Yep that's true.. alcoholism is a designated disease.

have you considered an anon report to social services or nspcc?
sounds like emotional abuse at a very minimum and possibly neglect.
But that would make this a Nanny country now wouldnt it? When does personal responsibility come into play?quote:Originally posted by luxor:

Why oh why do a lot of people think it is great fun to get so plastered that they do not know what they are doing.
The government should impose huge fines and curfews on anybody out on the streets who is incapable of walking straight (through drinking), and double it for pubs/clubs who allow their patrons to get in that state.
If Joe public can not regulate their drinking themselves, then somebody will have to do it for them.
