if it means you are better off then why not?

I'd be the same mate, I'd want to keep working regardless but if there is a big difference in income, you have to think of you and the kids. Sadly, with 2 kids and Kat working part time while at Uni, I'm still. It entitled to tax credits due to my income!

It's a shitty system, but get it working for you short term rather than sacrifice your transport mate.

Sorry to hear this Sam, hope it all works out for you. Is there anyway you can reduce childcare costs? Parents etc?? What about a friend that could child mind cash in hand. My Sister has two young kids so is off work and looks after one of her friends children whilst she works?? Cheaper than normal childcare.

I feel for you..............I have only one child (he is 20!) but its a struggle keeping flat going and a zed too. Hopefully when he starts uni next month, things will get a bit better, as he is paying me £300pm rent.
Id try and keep the car, a) you will regret selling b) you wont get much for it c) when you back to normal, you wont find another one as good.

No the people who ****** the country up are the ones who claim with no intention of finding a job, not the ones who have fallen on hard times and need a little help.

Not a good time mate, pity CAB's advice was so poor that would be the only thing I could think of that could have helped
