    Your last post has given a lot more information than the first. It can't be easy for you. Nevertheless from an outsiders viewpoint it looks typical of a person abusing the system. You even admit that the only work you have ever done before your pregnancy was off the books. You had never paid anything into the system up to 3 weeks before you discovered you were pregnant but yet now you want other people tax money to be handed to you, tax money you were not prepared to pay yourself. It's just not right.

    You should not have to go through this penniless and alone. I empathise with the situation you are in and I wish you well but at the end of the day the mother and father are responsible for the providing for of their children. Have you contacted the father of the child? He has moral and financial obligations to you and the child that he must fulfil.

    first of all what do you mean by I was not prepared to pay taxes? of course i was prepared to pay them what kinda accusation is that??

    Anyway, do you know exactly where the tax you pay goes???? Do you know FOR SURE how the government is spending the money you are paying them? no. No one really does. But heres the difference between me and you, I had no problem working, paying tax to the government that some of which might just have been going towards financially assisting some one in a worse of situation then me at the time. Im not gona knock on there door and say "hey... that money the governments giving you to help... i paid some of that. I want it back." which is in a roudabout way exactly what you are saying when you say you shouldn't have to pay taxes for to keep other people...

    Im joinin in the cat posting...

    As I'm somewhere to the right of Mussolini I can see where dame is coming from. A safety net is a good thing for those who slip from the high wire of life, but when when have become a safety net culture, that's not healthy for any society. It's not just milking the system, it's stupid lawsuits too. It's never your responsibility, or fault. When someone else will always cover your mistakes, how will you ever learn.

    All that off topic bullshít aside, dame pushed it. Not so much in the original but getting all muppety after the fact.

    Highly dubious argument. A common one though.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    You said yourself you worked but off the books. Claiming to be be prepared to pay taxes but not actually paying them doesn't make you a taxpayer.

    It was my first job and the only one available to me at the time.. it doesnt mean i wasnt prepared to pay taxes... would have gladly but it was bascially volunteer work that id get paid for occasionly... to gain some experience in the hopes that I would have a better chance doing well in an interview for a "tax paying" position.

    The original thread in the parenting forum, but when dame was banned from there she tried discussing it else where,
    first work&jobs and there here.

    I don't think feedback should be used to try and move the topic to a forum where a) it does not belong and b) so that a baned person can view and reply to it.

    I would ask the admins if they have the time to merge the relevant posts by the ops and others ( ie the likes of hagar ) in the thread which is here
    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055218197

    Personally, im not sure feedback is a good idea fullstop.

    If mods decide an action and the member does not like it, they should discuss it via pm.

    Having mods to spend endless pages of explaining their decisions imo is pointless, except for the odd catpic's oppertunity.

    I think the poster should exhaust all avenues first. PM the mod and politely.
    Like snyper said, the mods shouldn't have to defend themselves for pages and pages.

    Sometimes there's actually feedback about the site. *shock* Like the two most recent ones about the nav menu and one person who couldn't access the site properly.

    Technically, there is no 'daddy' until the baby is born.

    Not your ornery onager

    I think this thread is being used to discuss the topic rather then to feedback about the incident. Closed.
