    why is it that a couple living together with 3 children only get a payment of 400 euro per week?
    i think the government want us all to be single parents as i would be better of i would get 290 per week and he would get his 190 or whatever wyo?

    Sad truth is you're right, you would be better off (financially!) living apart. Likewise, myself and OH would be entitled to greater benefits if he lost his job, or if we lived seperately. It's no wonder some people opt to screw the system, in the case of welfare it just doesn't "pay" to do things the "decent" way.
