You can't get a freehold with a flat? Sometimes the owners of a small block can club together to buy the freehold but in bigger blocks that's just too much trouble.
Forced out of our home with nowhere to go

Has to be child care (unless your lucky enough to have relatives that are willing and able). The costs are high, buts its only for a few years.
Child care.
Which (Tory plan) puts the nanny into the tax bracket too. Honestly leaving your kids with a nanny is not something i personally view as acceptable. My own mother did that when they worked for the NHS and i have very bad memories of wanting to know why i was being shipped off after school.
I could not understand at the time and it made me very upset. This is why i think the whole family values thing is going down the toilet. One parent should be working and one looking after the home and children. Or after a hard days work do you hire cleaners too and therefor mostly negate most of the extra earning from both working? It sucks, People should just flat out refuse to do it until the Goverment get off thier butt and sort it out.
But they would just import more people and laugh at you. Grrrrrr!!!!

i heard it costs almost the same amount as someones typical salary?
Not far off depending on your wage but there's a lot of benefits from your child going to Nursery, interacting with children, meeting new people, learning, etc.

ha i made a thread asking if people hire cleaners lol
That's a terrible situation. If I was you I would have moved the kids out to stay with family, but I would have stayed in the flat with my wife until the council arranged an acceptable alternative accommodation. If you bought the place how in the world can they kick you out?
Yes it might be dangerous as far as the council is concerned but that's just one more reason for them to pull their finger out.

they go nursery anyway regardless if both parents working or not?
the benefits of one of the parents looking after the child far outweighs leaving them in child care IMO

Not got too much to add other than I hope you get it sorted OP.
Full time you're looking at around £12k+ per year. Which is after tax, of course (subject to government's childcare voucher scheme).

The skills and confidence young children pick up from nursery is amazing, my two have come on leaps and bounds compared to there cousins that don't go to nursery.
Only downside is the amount of friends they have made we end up losing a lot of weekends to kids parties

Why? Even if we didn't work we would send our eldest to Nursery for a couple of days a week.

Yup i would not damage my child for the sake of putting a cleaner and baby sitter in the tax bracket. Let them get a real job and ban breast feeding at work. Can you trust a babysitter not to do things to your kid? Scary stuff if you got the wrong babysitter!

Lol this is so true, its something new every week !!
I am struggling to understand what your getting at (or talking about to be fair).
You know when I mentioned earlier about some posters in the thread having difficulties with life....

Well the empirical evidence of the difference in a childs development from those attending structured Early Years Education (ie: A Nursery) compared to those who don't, would disagree with you.
