My son gave up his last job and the both of them sit in their flat, not getting up till lunchtime etc etc.it totally drives me mad as they are both fit healthy young people. Why isnt the job centre pushing them into getting jobs, or training or something. it is such a waste and we are all paying for it.I am sure most people on here know someone exactly the same. It would do them good to be working as they really struggle with their money i.e pawning all their stuff every week and then buying it back when they get their dole money. It is madness!I no longer give them money or food but it is so frustrating because the older they get the harder it will be.does anyone agree?</blockquote>
