She hasn't done anything wrong dear judges. Life in the UK just sucks right now. Leave off.

Its not easy. With the cost of life and the cost of the UK we pay so much and get so little.

Not for nothing but I just watched an itv piece talking about how people can't afford their rent, their food, their power. So a piece about a woman (seems like a loving, good mom) worried about childcare cost while she is on vacation is a bit tepid, isn't it? Not 100 years ago, their was no such thing as 6 week paid vacation. Count your blessings.

God bless her. Wishing her all the best.

Parks are free still.....I think

"GET RID OF NETFLIX! STOP HAVING AVOCADO TOAST! STOP BUYING THE LATEST IPHONES! EAT BREAD AND WATER UNTIL THIS BLOWS OVER (LIKE WE DID 100 YEARS AGO!)" - The average reader of The Times

Theres kids starving and you worry of expensive activities.. Sell jewelry and other items you don't need. That's what rest of us do..

What about government child care and also she can and does work from home so getting paid also for looking after kid. This report does say nothing about all the help she could get or is she earning to much money. None of this was ever brought up. Utter bs.

Your big mistake is no dad

My daughter and son-in-law, decided not to have children, as the future of this world is mess, and feel guilty to bringing a child into it.

Maybe socialism, running great public services and taxing the rich with redistribution of wealth isn’t a bad idea. We should try implementing this economic model.

Respect to this woman . I bet she would be better off not working

Kids dad is in prison, calling it now.

Should have made better life choices regarding your baby daddy then you wouldn't be in this situation that you made for yourself. Why should everyone else be expected to clean up your mistakes.
