Why do you get money for looking after your own children? Is that not why we are parents?
I can understand money assistance if your child is needs special equipment to help lead a normal life or you need help because the child has other special needs.
And I really am opposed to getting money without being diagnosed, that sounds ridiculous and completely open to abuse. If people do need financial support to help with such a condition (and in some cases they might) it should be on a case by case diagnosis not just a hand out.
Am I missing the point here?
