There seems to be an epidemic of divorced immigrants in this country, like, they will think its a good idea to marry and leave their homeland to start a new life here, and then the husband will leave them marooned here with a child, no other family members, to survive on their own.
I don't know why people do that. Or think they can. We have govt support in place to look after widows it was originally meant for them, as they are genuine solo, but for those that just had children and the dad ran off, well, they do have a benefit as well on top of it regardless of wether they share custody or not, thats why people don't marry, to get the DPB, domestic purposes benefit and claim the father is unknown.
then because they are getting financial support, the dads then don't think they need to support their own children. Its a mess. If I want to say anything its that, FLEE FORNICATION. Your life will be a mess, I know because often I am picking up the pieces. Even if you marry, often I find the people that have problems are the ones who fornicated before marriage. Then they married in haste, and boy, do they repent at leisure.
