JUS BECAUSE II AM 20 WEEKS & WANTED TO KNOW WAT INCOME II AM ENTIITLED TOO.. PEOPLE ARE JUS LIKE.. TYPICAL.. ETC.. WHATS THE POINT IN CLICKING ON THE QUESTION IF THERES NUFFINK POSITIVE TO SAY!! ANY1 AGREE?
Answer:
you do get some nasty people. i posted my baby pics up and asked about modelling agencies and they were like errr she hasn't got what it takes to be a model and that i'm a bad parent to want her to do it. i did work but at the moment we worked out that i would be losing money if went back to work due to childcare! that's why i thought the modelling was a good idea as i spend quality time with my daugther, no childcare cost and wouldn't have to go back to work. that money would help us buy things for her like toys clothes food etc but i just got slated! ignore them. the most important thing is that your planning early so you are prepared for your baby. you'll be a great mum. congrats.xx
Answer:
For the people who didn't understand the question, I'll attempt to translate:
“Why do people look down on pregnant women? Just because I’m 20 and I wanted to know what income I’m entitled to. People are just (no need for the word 'like' here) typical. What's the point in clicking on the question if there's nothing positive to state. Anyone concur?'
Hopefully this translation will help. To answer your question, I don't believe that people do look down on pregnant women - at all. I do think, however, that people may look down on those who focus solely upon what benefits they’re entitled to.
Also, it might be worth bearing in mind that on forums such as this - typing in all caps is considered shouting. People might look down on you for this and your obvious lack of knowledge regarding correct grammar.
Answer:
They're not looking down on you, they are looking down on your question. No one is ENTITLED to ANY income. The concept of responsibility is diminishing in our society, and in order to earn an income you must EARN it. Some circumstances necessitate help, yes, but that help must come while you are working to better your life and your child's life. It also doesn't help when you ask your questions in such a way that somebody has to translate (thank you to the lady who did that).
And, other people are right. If you ask a question in a public forum, you’ve to be willing to accept people's advice. Not everyone is going to concur with you or be nice to you. That's part of life. I've been called a horrible person on here as well for silly things (like intending to put my baby in a crib in her nursery from the begin instead of co-sleeping). If you can't ignore a few negative comments, then life is going to seem long.
Answer:
First of all being a woman talks for itself. You are apart of an elite group, that can give birth to mankind. Without women this world wouldn't be as productive as it is. Secondly you are deciding to be a mother and have your baby. Who cares if someone looks down on you. Everyone is not going to always tell you things that “you” want or like to hear. Don't post anything if you’re not ready for negative and positive feedback. You ever heard of the word “ignore”, that's what you need to do to people who bring negativity your way.
Congrats on the pregnancy!
Answer:
Who looks down on pregnant women? This is my second pregnancy and NO ONE has ever looked down at me or any other pregnant woman i know.
But honestly, in my opinion, it is hard to state something positive to a person who types like you just did in this question.
If you want people to take your question seriously, type properly. Just a suggestion.
Answer:
Personally i think there is so many people that have forgotten to be nice! I asked a question about breastfeeding and 1 women was very abusive to me saying i shouldn't have a baby and i didn't deserve to be a mom because i don't want to breastfeed from my breast and want to pump! Lovely thing to say to a pregnant women! you no what though hun, i cant believe how many people get an opinion when you’re pregnant, even my friends have something to state, like i shouldn't have it and i am making a mistake! nice of them isn't it lol. Don't listen to the people that are being horrible and just take the advise that’s good for you. Congrats by the way!
Answer:
That's just one of the downsides of YA. Everyone has their own opinions and like to share them. Im the same when it comes to people saying that just because my baby is in nursery then Im not actually bringing up my own child. Just ignore them it's not worth it. I don't think some people realise the effect their comments can have, or they just don't care! Either way it's not right, well I don't think it is
Answer:
Oh for crying out loud…
DON'T post on here if you don't have a thick skin - you will always get an answer you don't like.
No-one looks down on pregnant women - they look down on kids who can’t afford to fund their own children, especially when they can't even spell or use the most basic grammar.
Answer:
So, you come to a public forum, you're going to get all kinds of responses. You either ignore it or deal with it.
Besides, I think it's not that you're pregnant, it's that there’s another pregnant woman who didn't use birth control and now has to live off the system…and, who pays for the “system?” We do.
Answer:
People respond openly here. This is an impersonal format, and we respond very openly as we don’t have to face you.
Your spelling is horrible. I could not understand what you were trying to say, as it makes poor sense. If you talk the way you write, maybe that is the issue/reason.
Answer:
People don't look down on you because you're pregnant, they look down on you because you're having a baby you can't afford and anticipate the taxpayer to pay for it.
Answer:

Answer:
I’ve nothing against pregnant women.
I do think that a pregnant woman should at least talk/write properly, for the childs sake.
People all don't like people that rely on the goverment to give them money for their kids.
Answer:
probably because there is “nuffink” positive to say. No one lookedd down on me when i was pregnant- maybe sometimes because i was young but not very often
Answer:
I think its probably your grammar rather than asking about benefits, it indicates to people that you’re young and maybe immature?!
Answer:
No, I don't think people look down on pregnant women. I think people look down on people who are on income support
(not saying I do, but just looked at your previous question and being honest)
Answer:
Because they are usually lay down
Answer:

Answer:
