    This kid has a strong head on his shoulder and is ridiculously brave. Looking out for his mum and just dealing with the situation instead of acting out. So much respect. I hope and pray that he continues with that strong head and makes something of himself!!

      Lol. 1.) This guy only represents himself, not all black men.
      2.) How about these women choose their men better. I see too many times women knowing a guy isn't father material yet still having kids with him then having the audacity to blame the guy when he chooses to forego fatherhood.

    These comments about the woman living off the government because she is lazy is making me sick to my stomach , this attitude is exactly why many people are in this situation. We aren't in the bloody Victorian times , people aren't in this situation because of their actions , it's the circumstances they were born into . Show this family and the others like it some human compassion and maybe we'd progress as a society . We are one of the richest countries in the world and people literally get their meals from the food bank it's so heartbreaking 😩. Then people end up in a vicious cycle of poverty , and just so you people who aren't on benefits can still have the same struggles , so don't be so quick to judge people .

Prices of rent and taxes are the biggest problem. When council tax cost £130 a month alone. Gas*electricity*water* also about £170 a month. And finally rent £650pcm.

    First of all I feel that I must say that to anyone who has been made redundant from work then I am very sorry about that, as it has happened to me and I know what you are going through. I am married, and I have a now grown up Son. I am well in to my 50's and have worked hard for all that I have, I began work at 16 in the construction industry and worked very hard to keep food on the table and pay the bills, as many people do. After working at the same company for almost 30 years I was made redundant, and was unemployed on two occasions. Since that time, I have found work and have eventually completed my mortgage. No one helped me to do this, I did this all alone. I see people on the streets begging when there is no need, they can go to the local council which must help them by law, by providing shelter and benefits until such time that these individuals can get a job. And even the councils do often offer them work to help them get on their feet, but for the most part this will require some commitment from them. Often they are not willing to agree to the offer from the council and they end up back on the street, which is their choice.
    As for people on benefits, I have to ask myself why are they on benefits? If they are disabled then that is understandable, but many prefer to be out of work, as they get more in benefits than they would on the minimum wage. Surely if these people have been out of work for more than 3 Months then they should have to work picking up litter and cleaning graffiti from walls etc, if they do this than they can keep their benefits until such time as they find work for themselves, but it is morally wrong to live off other peoples tax payments. Welfare is for those who need help, and not those who can't be bothered to get off their backsides and go to work, especially as there are numerous jobs available at the moment. I hear people talk about food banks, well if people were to go to work then they would not need them, food has never been cheaper than it is at the moment, and food banks have been around for decades, they are not a new thing at all, but people could be forgiven for thinking that they are a new thing as no one spoke about them in the past. As for Poverty, well in the 1920's that meant not having a roof over your head, and not having decent clothing and food of any kind, but in the year 2018 when benefits are available, and shelter is provided if requested, then it means a different thing altogether. Poverty in 2018 is not the same as it was in the 1920's, today people class themselves as being in poverty if they do not have a TV. There is not a single person out there who could not do what I did, and get a job and care for themselves, they need to because I am sick of paying for the idle when they have the same tools as I have, I am not a professor, and I do not have a degree, but I have the will to pay my way in life, and I feel better for having done that, it is just a shame that I have had to pay for others when they could pay for themselves. I know people will reply with sob stories, but there is no excuse. morally we should either work, or receive nothing at all. As stated earlier, I am not including the disabled, or the mentally impaired, but as for Poverty, well compared to the past, there is no such thing today.

    A nice stay in a retreat, some healthy food and exercise and a home with a job offer is all this family needs to get back on their feet.
    I know a lot are saying that she’s sponging and that she should help herself, but that’s not how chronic depression works.
    It’s a vicious cycle of illness, that effects absolutely everything in your life and sometimes it’s difficult just to put one foot out of bed.
    Yes a lot of people with a bad back still go out to work and crawl themselves out of terrible situations, but this women just needs a help back up.
    This is most probably years of stress that has resulted in this.

    I've lived off food banks when my benefits couldn't be sorted as they place I was crashing at, the staff didn't know what I was eligible for, had to leave home due to abuse at the age of 18, now I live in an ok environment and rent is so high that I only have £40 to live off for 2 weeks. I'd get a job but juggling college and my mental health, it's hard. People easily judge but just put yourself in the person shoes.

    Greece was in crisis for years, we never had these kind of problems. Even if you earn the lowest salary 550 EUR NET you can rent a normal appartment (With 200 EUR) and have a normal life. Sometimes Greek people go to London to work because it is overestimated. Finally they end up to live 2 - 3 ppl in the same appartment because the rents are crazy, and ofcourse they go back to Greece to have a low salary but at least to live as human beings. Unfortunately, London, and in general UK is not as what it used to be before 30 years. Rent prices compared to net salary are imbalanced. There should be a ceiling
