Re: The 13 year old Dad!
As the baby's mother is only 15 her parents are getting benefit for her and the baby. Read that they are receiving £30,000 a year, i.e. more than a lot of people who work for a living Having worked in a local Social Security office I'd say that's a fairly accurate figure.helgy wrote:Listened to Jeremy Vine the other day and alot of people who have gone through or are going through her situation applauded what she is now doing.
The child tax credit bit is easy under 18's don't qualify for nothing housing benifit thus taking away the benefit of freckless behaviour.
I was 35 when my first boy was born and to be honest i was glad that i was not in my teens it's not easy at times.
Normally if you earn over 25k then the payment is £40 a month,you have to be on a real low wage to get a lot of CTC .
With 4 children it would be about £180 per week payments in ctc.
Apparently the girl said that she hadn't intended to have a baby quite so soon - she had planned to wait until she was 18!

These young kids having kids of their own reminded me of something Frankie Boyle said.

Kids having babies.... surely someone should've suggested a pet rabbit?
If Dave was to use a Hammond L100 for just one more gig I'd die content.
