Working parents to get help with childcare costs

It is difficult to balance work, child rearing, home repairs, husband rearing :-) (I love you honey) and the everything else in between. For those who can't afford day care it can be troubling where are my children going to be today? I can see this program assisting in that way, but there is still the same question? Why aren't there more options? For instance companies should offer free day care for their employees at their place of business or a company funded location, then that company could receive a tax benefit. Parents would flock to such a employer for that benefit alone. What about the option of lowering the tax burden on single income households? Now I know I'm a American and frankly we should do the same things here. I think this is a world wide problem, our children suffer when we don't have the means to solve it for them as parents, educators, neighbors, and leaders.

I suppose that just means the more wives and children you have the easier it will be. !!!

Wow you are soooooo caring ........

While I realise that the Rt Hon. David Cameron is unlikely to respond let alone read my comments and without wishing to appear "political", I do have serious doubts about the abilities, skillsets and I have to say competencies of our so-called leaders to manage the affairs of State for what was originally and with good reason called Great Britain. Clearly they have no previous experience or concept of what is properly termed "public service" or it would seem show any concerns for the adverse effects their policies are creating to the British commercial and industrial business and to the British society as a whole. Policies that appear give to the rich(er) members of society based on the premise that hard work pays smacks of the Industrial Revolution and the days when workers doffed their caps and touched their forelocks when the boss walked past. Mr Cameron and Parliamentary collegues would do well to take a serious look at Japanese or Israeli industries and societies where in general workers, managers and owners do their bit for the joint benefit of the business or society. Lessons to be learned ladies and gentlemen but I would earnestly request you do so quickly and accept that a change in direction is necessary on many fronts but not by penalising all who appear to "fit" into a stereotyped group or section of society. fostered by a lack of understanding or the politiical will to research society's ills or from preconcieved ideals which appear seriously flawed,

What happened to wanting properly functioning family units with one working parent. Yet another lie by Cameron. I have had child benefit removed, and now my taxes are paying those who care more about money than the proper family unit. Where's the help for the single hard working parent. I should be entitled to my partners tax relief, as she stays at home to care for my children. Also another note you cruxcified Gordon Brown for buying bank shares to stop them collapsing. Yet you still haven't done anything about how the tax payer will get its money back, and still allowing bonuses to be paid. The banks we own should buy back the shares with any bonus money they intend to distribute.
