getting pregnant for free house and money

Hello, I started off with looking at your title and said I have to respond. I so agree with you. We were live there is a goverment housing called The Estates. The way this place works is that you have to fall within the guidelines and that includes usually have a child. Unless you are a married couple just wanting to start a family or have room mate wnd not making much or no money at all. Here I have seen families get into there and then after a couple months of living there they quite their jobs and get cash assitance just because they don't want to work. Not only that but if you don't have a job and you live there the estates people pay you government checks in the amount of 100.00 a month to pay your electric and gas. Which those 2 there runs about 40.00 a month at these buildings. I understand how fraustrating it is. We working people have to work hard to rent our places or even keep the morgage up to date. We don't get it easy so why should they. Teens or not they should have to get their butts out there and get a job like the rest of us. Why should we have to pay for their families when we are struggling to keeps ours together. I just hope that someday that the guidlines will be even harder for young people and teens to get this kind of help. I have to give you a big time thumbs up for a great discussion. A++++ to you on this very well good discussion.

Every countries worldwide has this problem with misguided youths. What you can do is try to get some influential persons in the community to give advice to these persons. Tax payers has to stand these bills and even though they receive it free it is not indeed free because it is being brought by some one else. Some persons have lack of self esteem and if this girl is indeed your friend I would advice you to sit her down and let her know that this is not about her anymore but her kids who want to be well fed and have a security to look towards.
Sometimes in our misguided state we forget all about the children who will be hurt in the decisions that we made. All the best.

well,it does sound quite ridiculous to me. in this world, there is no dearth of people exploiting any flaws in the law or making use of any loose ends. i just hope that someone puts up some criteria for allocation of houses in this case.

i was a teenage mum and i had a baby at 15 i couldnt get a council house i had to live with my mum because i couldnt get any benifit and now i have four children and i wanna go back to work my husband who i am with now he has a full time job to work for my children

I know exactly what yu are talking about, because I real estate in New York and am approached daily by people on city programs who are also on welfare, pulling up to my office in a range rover with a gucci purse.

They are doing it everywhere, someone needs to investigate.

That sound great were can I apply. No I'm just kiding I never did apply for such things when I had my first kid I was a tenager and single and I never like for other people to have petty on me. I have work since I was little helping my mom when she took me to work with her I had to get a real job after I had my baby. I have also meet some interesting people that live in those houses and got money and alot of good stuff for free and sometimes I think that it is not fare because I also need the help but I wont like to get it that way.
There was a family that lived in those little houses they were about 5 people there in only two rooms and the lady that got the house was only aloud be there with her 2 kids. She got kicked out because she had other people living with her and also because she was doing drugs and for have charges against her because she left her kid alone with no adult supervision. She had men stay over most of the weekends and it was always a different man. She always had a rent free house and she never got to pay bills and also she got money for a long time i think she was 18 when she started getting those benefits and she was around 40 when she was denied of most of that help.

It's sad how some folks just have no desire to contribute to society unless they consider popping out babies a contribution. I live in the Southern part of the US and just moved down here recently, I am appalled at how many teenage moms there are. Like being 14 means it's time for unwed mom's to start sponging off us taxpayers. It's shameful that there is little done to dissuade them from making such choices when they are just children themselves. And most of them come from broken homes or dadless homes so they continue the cycle of poverty. Tho like you said, they can afford designer items when many of us can't. My sisters discussed with their husbands how many children to have so that they could plan a financially healthy lifestyle and pay for their college. And yet some girls just seem to think that having another baby means more aid for them which sadly it does. Our welfare system is full of scammers and they sure learn early. I have always worked for a living and had my first job at 13 and it wasn't having a baby so I could live on my own...

THey do say now in the UK that when a child reaches 5 the mom has to go to work and also every few months you are sent for interviews at job centres. I am mysel a single mom after being subected to violence after my baby was born but I do pay towards my rent but am on benefits because I am not well and the doctor has written me off from working. I am gutted though as would love to work once my eldest goes to school. But that said I think it is terrible for some single moms to see it as a way to escape as havinga child is a massive responsibility. I constantly go without so my children can have everything they need and as for designer handbags on benefits that is something I could never afford unless my children went without. I do think that maybe rather than the money that maybe some of it could be made up by food vouchers which would mean that the money woudl go on what it is supposed to. Not all single moms are like this but I have heard it said by some young people that they feel they can get what they want that way. If you are a married couple the social do try and get one of the spouses to g to work but there are benefits also available to married couples such as tax credits child benefit and housing benefit. My advice to anyone wanting to get preganant just for a house is don't do it. I was in a relationship for 5 years before giving birth to my firdt daughter adn was with my second partner a very long time before he also turned sour on me and my eldest daughter. My advice to you though is to please not assume that all single moms are the same because we are not, some of us dont choose to be alone it is just a matter of circumstance and for me it was a choice between either staying in a violent relationship or taking my children who are so precious to me away from it all and starting a life on my own with them.

its funny of some laws and bi-laws that we have thinking we living in a modern world and we should protect the new generation at any cost..now the laws you passed are eating on you big time..i think you should oppose such kinds of laws in future..sorry..

THIS IS CRAZY WHAT IS THIS WORLD COMING TOO? These young girl want to lay on there back to have a baby so that they dont have to work talk about lazy!!!! And since they have this attitude how are they going to raise that child to be a adult who can function like normal people? Who is going to be there to teach that child responsibility, Independence. There total thought process is disgusting and this is where our tax dollars are going? I'd think i rather give it all the inmates in jail who are trying to better there self, well it seems like with is attitude these girls have they children just might end up in jail.
