The “I won’t put pressure on myself” attitude is rooted in everything just falling into her lap and into place with no effort at all though. She can just kick back and wait for the state to provide everything she wants like she has thus far.
She was housed quickly and at no cost to herself as a teenager, given a house promptly when she had her first (seemingly planned) baby shortly after, was re-housed from her one bed council flat to her two bed newbuild council house before her second (also seemingly planned) child even arrived. (For context, I had a friend who was in ‘emergency accommodation’ for well over a year including Christmas. Her kids were 5 and 8, and she was sharing one room with both of them and everything they had to their name!). Minnie has had enough disposable income courtesy of the tax payer to decorate her house as she pleases, buy brand new furniture, have expensive tech, use luxury detergent, buy a Ruggable rug (that she has since admitted is too big…) etc.
Minnie’s life could have been so much more of a struggle than it has been, but she’s had a welfare net to catch her and her kids, feed them, clothe them, and house them without Minnie having to exert any actual effort aside from decorating. She should be looking at that net and thinking of it as just that: a safety net for her to propel from, not a lifestyle to take endless advantage of.
She had a job for a few months as a teenager, but aside from that she’s never actually had to
work for her comfortable lifestyle in a spacious brand new home, with her nice car, frequent brand new clothes and toys for her children, all of the aforementioned big ticket items, etc etc. She has a nicer lifestyle than a lot of folk who have young kids
and real jobs.
She had her kids so young there’s no reason she couldn’t have more in another 5, 10, 15 even 20 years if she wanted to. Now’s the time
to apply pressure to herself to build a career, save for a home purchase, and focus on the two kids she already has. Not pop out more kids she has no clear plan to support, other than with benefits and a bigger council house.
I can’t work out if she’s an entitled
wick or just really really really thick.
