Not too familiar w SW payments but encountering a lot of pint drinking women with kids in tow this afternoon

Came to notice as the kids are running wild and the women have them on ignore

Just curious...

I think that is just awful sitting in drinking pints when with kids, jeez get a sitter and go drinking but taking the kids to the pub while you have a swift one is frankly disgusting to me.

If it's women drinking their children's allowance money then it should be known as C**T Tuesday to be honest. That's beyond awful.

children allowance should be vouchers but knowing the scum they just sell them

I bought stuff to benefit my kids with mine. Disgusting to think they dragged their kids to a pub though. If you can afford to drink, you can afford a babysitter.

why?

everyone gets it, we all know that plenty of people don't need it. if the government are stupid enough to give some lady free money, let her do whatever she wants with their stupidity after her kids are alright.

Kids in pubs will never be alright though. Let them have a drink while a babysitter is at home with the kids by all means but don't bring your kids into a predominantly adult environment.

I should have known that's why the coffee shops were busy today. I went for a coffee today in Limerick, a place I don't usually go to but my usual haunt was jammed solid. There was a group of women with kids at the table in front of me. One of the kids can't have been more than 6/7 and he was being a nuisance and complaining to the mother. She told him there were plenty of places he could visit, she started by listing his granny's. She didn't make it past suggesting granny as he shouted 'shut up bitch' at her.

In my day that would not have been tolerated. Jesus I'm 40 now and I'd say my mother would give me a slap in the face if I spoke to her like that.

caustic 1 · 02-07-2013 06:00PM

What was her response to that?

Fart · 02-07-2013 06:01PM

How much do they get for this "mickey money"?

Not enough to pay for a babysitter it seems, perhaps they should think of increasing it.

Ahhh won't they be so funny when they are teens maybe throwing in the odd slap for mammy too to get a point across. jeez some folk.

fryup · 02-07-2013 06:10PM

isn't there a pub in donnybrook thats notorious for lonely single mothers??

L1011 · 02-07-2013 06:15PM

That'd explain the three kids abandoned in the magazine aisle beside the offlicence section of the mini-supermarket down the road earlier... shop staff didn't seem to care either mind.

Nemeses · 02-07-2013 06:18PM

I'd like some free money to go to the pub..

AnonoBoy · 02-07-2013 06:19PM

I have a mickey.

Do I get money for it?

Well yes I do.

But only because the stripclub pays me to show it off.

i can't say sunday lunch in a pub ever caused a psychological crisis in my house, but each to themselves.

caustic 1 · 02-07-2013 06:29PM

Sunday lunch or any lunch or occasion is not the point, for me anyhow, it's stopping in for a drink. Surely it couldn't be that strong of an urge that it couldn't wait until you had a sitter.

Government and all that crap aside, on a base level it boils down to mothers spend money meant for their children on booze instead.

Which is scummish behaviour.

I know that is the conclusion some people draw from the name, but I don't know of any instruction to that effect.

The payment is some odd, non means tested reward for squirting out babies. A belief that it is only to be spent on the children presumes that the mothers need financial help with raising her children, and of course many do not.

Don't drink and buggy

Sunday lunch is slightly different though. Sunday is a family day mostly. A bit of dinner and off to an event for most families not a day to get boozed up while your kids are left unsupervised.

Is it Mickey money day today?
