Well behaved kids. Good father & mother, getting the basics right. Help should always be there for those who are unable to work through no fault of their own.

I was 17 in 1985 we moved to Wales & I remember going into the job centre & having the pick of jobs, the walls were covered in open positions. I realise now how lucky I was .

My mate said the same he was 16 in 1984 and he said you could start a job on Monday leave on a Friday and have a new job by Monday and so on and so on. Until you found one you actually liked. Crazy.

Lovely son, I hope he's happy now. The father, how dare those snobs say he's a scrounger,walking miles for food as cheap as possible. People this day and age don't appreciate tax credits,child benefit and income support. I was one of those kids,mum was a beautiful ,kind great mother but dad was seriously ill with schizophrenia and left my brother and I when I was 3 and brother was 8. I thought my poor mum was underestimating when she said 30 pounds a week for 2 kids and herself. All her multiple sisters married well and had middle class lives,we never got a Xmas or a card except for my dear family in Bradford and my one uncle . No hand me downs from their expensive clothes. I don't count them as aunt's. My father's family were kept far as my mum hadn't spoken since my dad left. I remember,cold house,hardly any clothes but always fed and when clothing grant for school clothes came it was the only good clothes we had. I remember my mum struggling for tights and even having just one bra. I love my mum for this. She's comfortable now after a little inheritance. Nothing lasts forever. Clean clothes,bed,food and love is the most important things. I cherish my furniture and the comfortable house I made for myself, every day.

Poor Tony. I would rather crawl on my hands and knees than burden my children like this . Shame on social services. 😢

I've been through all this, alcoholism, depression, thoughts of suicide. But suicide isn't fair on your family, imagine the effect it would have on them.

Unusual but not impossible if both grandparents and parents had their children later in life. When my son is 24 my father will be 92. So not too much difference. I do feel for this lad though as I had older parents and my mother was very ill for 10 years before she died and it was a huge strain on us as a family. I can only imagine how he must feel being a carer to 3 adults and he's only a teenager.

I felt for Tony the most cuz he was doing the best he could taking care of his parents. But his getting acting gigs- he’d be able to help them better in the long run- while also having a life of his own. Hearing his pain really hurt my heart. The father didn’t really seem like a good getter. It was like he was just going thru the motions of looking for a job. I wonder where they all are now.
