We all know they are living in fairy land, but council estates are full if unmarried mothers like these! Back in the 50's and 60's many of these girls had to give up their babies... so less took the risk! These days, nobody would want to see a baby homeless, so people with children get preference.... that is why it is so difficult for others to get social housing.
There are also a lot of people, with foreign names, that get this accommodation & then move out and rent it to other people at a higher rent.. so they can make money. It is illegal, but the fraudsters are smart and a lot of them don't get caught for years! Very few go to prison they just get fined, because it is more expensive keeping them in prison!
Exactly. There is the answer.
It seems that having a baby or three has become a career choice for many young 'ladies'.
Why work for money and a house when you can receive these free of charge?
Yes, you will have to work; you will have to look after and feed your children but, apparently, women like looking after children!
You won't become rich, of course, and when your children have grown up most of the money will dry up. You could have more children, of course, but eventually your body will be incapable of doing that.
The thing is, of course, that the sort of women who make this career choice cannot see that far ahead!
