Not at all. I simply want to know what we would be legally entitled to. I find it hard to believe that the government would leave us broke when we have 2 small children and no income.
Look here mate - if you can't sufficiently plan for your financial future, you are not going to get any of my taxes to support yourself. The government will not support you if you leave the workforce of your own choice to undertake a course of study. Likewise unemployment benefits are not available to stay at home wives - with the exception of some tax credits.

The tax system is designed to encourage you to work, which your wife should be doing if you need more money - simply the childcare support while working is far more attactive than sitting at home.

Before you jump at my neck about your right to bring up your children in the manner you choose - think again. You have made the choice to go to Cabair - and good luck - but consider the conseqences before eating up my tax receipts.
