Ema Help [+Rep]

[today]

not my fault your mum isnt clever enough to get a decent job

Actually she could have problems with learning, you dont know?

My mum went school, college and got good grades though to get the jobs she want she has to take a year's course (at least) which is called "ECDL Driving License" for a Office Job, then when she's got that it doesnt mean she can get a office job just like that, why? as many want experince thus not getting the job she wants aand getting worse, less paid jobs.

So you can shut yer trap

These contraception jokes are annoying people and they're not proving a point other than you being uncomfortable with your present status. So what if she has 5 siblings?

There seems to be a lack of rational thought on both sides...

She is complaining that she has to share the money with all her family. Its her mums fault for having so many children then, if she cant handle it then she shouldnt of been so irresponsible and had them.

Its true, if you cant support your family then you shuldnt have one.

And if its "not planned baby birth" then its the same, why have the children if you cant care for them. Let someone who can.

So you're saying you'd rather watch someone's grades suffer and them suffer in life as a whole, rather than let the government help them?

So, so selfish.

No. I think the point is that people spend EMA on things like CDs and DVDs rather than things for college.
People who NEED it, like the person who needs money for buses and wouldn't be able to go to college without it - deserve it.
I think everyone should be entitled to some EMA, if not, only on a very restricted basis - like metioned above, without it wouldn't be able to go to college.

I didnt call them stupid. You assumed i did and you virtually said that they don't know what it is. Also if they aren't from the same parents its still the same situation. Your mum shouldn't have had so many children if she can't handle having them.


Sorry but you lost this arguement from the start.

But in all fairness, your family isn't exactly in a better state "/ You have no right to comment on her family when yours isn't any better "/ Even if it was, then that's just mindless criticism.

Her parents can have more than 1 child if they want, there isn'tt anything saying not to. Besides, your pretty much wishing half of them dead by saying the mother shouldn't of had them.

She pretty much has the same right as you for EMA when you think about it. It's not about how much your family income is annually, but how the income is distributed around the family. A family below £30,000 could have enough money to give each child a good life. That is alot of money when you think about it.

Its true, if you cant support your family then you shuldnt have one.

And if its "not planned baby birth" then its the same, why have the children if you cant care for them. Let someone who can.

Ah but they can support them, about as much as a family who gets EMA can. DOn't judge how another persons parents wishes to have a family "/

my mum can cope
we can cope fine
we have enough money to go around and money left over
this argument has just completly gone from the original point
that people get ema to buy rubbish

Yeah i agree with the last bit. it should be about how it is distributed. I did not however wish half of them dead, just pointed how that if her mum couldn't handle it then she shouldnt of had them.
