Why stop child tax credits and penalise working parents?
I feel the government are making my decision for me in having more children by stopping tax credits. I have 3 children at the moment and would like one more but I cant afford the childcare without assistance, like many other parents.
Childminders and nurseries will suffer as a result of less children being born. We will need less midwives and health visitors as case loads will be smaller.
Also with the reduced earnings, for nurseries and childminders because of the new 30 free hours a week for 2 and 3 year olds.
If both parents are working fulltime then we should be able to claim this still for however many children we can afford to feed, clothe and house.
You can't sign this petition because it is now closed. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
