The DD who missed the first term of 2025 because Shithole was tired and had a term time holiday last month isn't doing well at school.....



Gosh if only we were all as great as Shithole.
Wow mother of the year. A predicted ZERO in English Lit? That poor kid.

That's not behind - that's seriously failing at school.
If she's going into Y11 in September then I doubt she'd be able to make up to pass marks even with a decent parent who can assist her in studying and getting her tit together.

Just scraping by in life on benefits is no life for anyone. She has put six kids through this tit life, and only 1 of them seems to have managed to get himself out of the hole to try and forge a decent life for himself.

What gets me is she uses the same excuses over and over - she won’t help the kids academically at all, as they’re too stressed or tired or whatever. Never admits that it’s because she’s too lazy and that academic achievement has never been made a priority by her. At all.

This thread is exactly what you would expect. A mix of those who agree that it's a really good amount, and those who spend £120k a month in Waitrose so it would just be pocket change they've found down the back of the sofa

I did like this one who came along with a load of completely irrelevant information just to make sure we all know that she's so much better than us

I've been taking financial advice from a silver Audi driver-Clearly White SUV driver is what I need! 🤣

Silver Audi driver is qualified but only has 1 child, 4 bedrooms...also calls me 'bro' a lot!

And I’m 99% sure I saw a post by her that that son was raised predominantly by his father.

Im still trying to get my head around how having a white SUV makes her better than everyone else.

I drive a white SUV (ignoring the fact it is 10 years old, falling apart and has cost me a duck tonne in repairs recently) so I now identify as rich and shall start looking down on you all

Aaah but do you holiday well?
What is the person/bedroom ratio in your house?

Also, it depends where the brother lives? £120,000 will buy you a street of houses in Burnley!

That Bagel poster is definitely bullshitting. I'm the same age and "We holiday well" and "I've a [car]" is not in my lexicon, that's just insane. Would hazard a guess that this is yet another lonely weirdo projecting their own insane ideal of what "successful" looks like (young-ish and speaks like Barbara Cartland) to... impress randos on the internet I guess? Sad.
Plus if she’s telling the truth I’m pretty sure most good financial advisors would recommend she puts some of those savings into investments (EFTs, shares etc). They’re not as financially savvy as she’s trying to bull and she’s not ‘working smart’ with her money 🙃

I drive a silver Nissan Micra, what does that make me?
Okay, okay, okay, calm down, I know I am one of the poors.

My dream car is a Nissan Cube. I also enjoy a Greggs sausage roll on occasion. I'm going to be hunted for sport by a MNutter
