    why do you think?

    I would have thought staying at home, at least initially, would have been far more beneficial as she'll need some support etc as she gets used to being a mother.

    I've not seen any indication of her parents throwing her out in her posts.

    So, my question is still valid.

    possibly.

    Id have hated that though, and not all mothers would be up for that even if they did have the space.

    U-huh.

    I know I wouldn't like somebody interfering all the time, but still, I've never been a young single mother (would be a very, very strange world if I was!! :lol: ) and it may work out for the best :)

    Whichever - If Michelle is happy, then all good.

    congrats chelle and best of luck with the baby!

    For accomodation can you afford the private sector? You would get housing benefits, all the other benefits and such. I wonder if your parents are going to help out until you're settled?

    Otherwise if you need a place to stay you can apply to the council for a council house, but there's no guaruntee you'll get one. I guess the best people to speak to would be a benefits advisor who knows exactly what you'll be entitled to :).

    You could always try ask thesite?
