You've called me out before for choosing my kid on weekends, then said on here you'd have loved to go fishing or down the city but you were too tired.. suggesting you hardly went..that my t-shirt over a jumper wearing friend is trolling. The very thing you spend time crying over.

I'd suggest looking back at how I started on this thread, before you decided to drag my name into it for no reason. I suspect I was polite and rather harmless, until poked. Actions cause reactions, you victim.
You said you cared for a family member , worked full time and looked after your kid

You are not a full time carer but we're trying to suggest that you were

If you take it in turns to spend time with an old granny together with family members .....that's not the same as being a single parent of a disabled child that you and you alone are responsible for

I go to the football and go to gigs and go fishing a lot more these days but it's not as much as it was and when I was a full time , full on 24 hour carer I simply didn't have time to myself as its too exhausting and you catch up on sleep

If you see granny a few nights a week or go shopping for her now and again that's great but it's not caring for her in the way some people have to . If you share custody of your daughter you share responsibility and therefore are not having to care for her 24 hrs a day, 7 days a week . If your daughter was in a wheelchair and you didn't have an ex wife to split things then you might have an idea of what you think is a caring role .

I care about my aunty in neath who drinks too much and I see her in the holidays but I am not responsible for her .

I can't be any clearer than that . Now get your money out or you go in the bad room with the rest of them .
