And thats fair enough. You want to do whats right by your child by providing a safe environment. Well he wants to do whats right by his and provide her with an education. And like I said before, you'll always put your own kid first than other peoples needs right
?
I think we will do what is best for our children within our means and within limitations I am at university but my parents are not paying for it because they can't afford too. They are comfortably off but they live in a private rented flat and they have to pay for that. I will pay my fees back when I am working. When Aidan is older if he wants to go to University I will help him if I can afford to. But he will be 18 when he goes to school and if it came between a choice of living in a council house and paying for him to go to uni or paying more rent/mortgage I will always choose paying more for a house. Why? Because I know excalty what it is like to live in a hostel where you can't go to sleep at night because you are petrified of someone coming in. Aidan will be an adult at that point not a vunrable child living in a disgusting, inappropriate and unsafe environment. I'm not saying what your dad is doing is a bad thing at all he is doing what he thinks is best. But I don't think they should be at the expense of other peoples lives and children's start in life xx
And thats fair enough to you if thats your attitude to life
but Some people put their own family first even if it is selfish.
But some people when they struggle, they'll do anything not to be put back in that situation if you know what I mean. Say if someone struggled to get a roof over their childs head when they were young, eventually a few years down the line they managed to get things stable and started earning a decent income and there was a chance that they could afford something private. What if they move out of that stable, nicely built home for somewhere else and it doesn't work out? They would have left their home for nothing. So I imagine some people decide to stay because of the security because as you ladies all know, council housing can be hard to come by.
