I think that yes, there may be some who buy luxuries and then struggle but with the present economic crisis there are going to be many who find themselves out of a job through no fault of there own, people made redundant when firms go into administration, many of these will have families and mortgages because they can't have foreseen being made redundant. These are possible the ones who are going to struggle. |

I think that if our parents had been doing the parenting now days they would have handed down clothes or gone to jumble sales the problem is WHAT PEOPLE EXSPECT |

Stray I agree with you to a point about why have a baby if you can't afford to provide for it, (and also multiple children!), but as I said, many of these families with babies and children will have been well able to afford it until their firm went belly up. Look at how many have gone into administration recently, think of all the parents who were working to provide for their children, then look at the queue seeking work this week when 4000 applied for 1000 jobs. Those are the people who need help. |

I too am in favour of this, when I heard about it I didnt expect the whole of benefit to be paid in vouchers as Ann says people have water bills to pay and need cash for other things as well, bet a few tattoo artist go out of business if it comes off :-P |
