Turns out it's a campaign from some group of oppressed welfare queens single mammies who want a meal ticket for life, no strings attached, for squeezing out a kid. They can fûck right off. Women who choose to work for a living don't get seven months of paid maternity leave never mind seven years. Fathers get no paid leave at all.

Regardless of a recession, 7 years is a long, long time to be without any kind of work. I'd agree with cutting anyone off after 7 years to be honest. Especially if it's consecutive w/o interruption of any kind.

At the moment the age limit is 18, or later if the 'child' is in full time education! And they want this crazy system to continue, unchanged. Some people really are out of touch with reality.

Luckily, all our gender issues were heartily resolved by the 1910s, when it was decided that we'd assign colors to each "team": blue was for girls and pink was for boys. No, that's not a typo: A 1918 editorial from Earnshaw's Infants' Department stated that pink was "a more decided and stronger color ... more suitable for the boy; while blue, which is more delicate and dainty, is prettier for the girl." It makes sense: Pink is the color of a nice, raw, manly steak, or the blood of your enemies splattered on a white uniform.

this time on infants - - explaining that young children haven't yet been socialized into gender roles by society, so their color preferences are innate.http://www.google.ie/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=infants%20boys%20do%20prefer%20blue&source=web&cd=6&ved=0CEwQFjAF&url=http%3A%2F%2Fcuriosity.discovery.com%2Fquestion%2Fgender-colors&ei=_D6YT9nzCY6xhAf8jsX_BQ&usg=AFQjCNH-41enB4UJX3kqwg79gn9-bgqe5g The researchers suggest that women's preference for pink and red may come from their roles as gatherers in ancient times. Red is the color of many fruits and berries. It's also the color of children's faces when they're flushed. A 2003 study supports this; it found that women's eyes are physically attuned to see reds better than other colors. Men may prefer blue because it signified a good water source and good weather, but this could be an interpretive leap [source: The Guardian].
