she can't sign on cos she's in full time education...no more benefits...living for free
she's just managed to waddle downstairs to get her dinner...i feel like smashing the plate in her face
Smurfster 
I know how you feel. I had moments of wanting to give up and just scream when I couldn't get Duds to seriously look for a job...and he wasn't being a moody git at the same time, so it must be reeeeeally hard
Evening Bazzy and Smurfster, btw. I maybe should have led with that 
hi ducky it's a living hell...she just doesn't want to work
Just take a deep breath .....weesmurf posted:hi ducky
Duds put it off cos he was scared. He didn't think he would cope with the social interaction. His job hasn't exactly cured him, but he's definitely improved. 
Whatever's stopping her, even if it's just pure laziness, she'll get there in the end Smurfs. Assuming you can resist smashing her face in with a plate in the meantime. Deep breaths is definitely the way to go! Deep breaths and hugs from the little 'un.

Trouble is that when you are in the midst of it it feels like you're the only one that has ever been through it ....and that NO child can have been as bad as yours , eh But honestly Smurfy , it is so often par for the course ....and like Ducky ( and I) ) have said , she will come out of it , I promise
