.
Which is the whole point ,if an adult is not disabled and does not have children they would not qualify for HB,that is where the line is drawn because there is not a never ending supply of money to pay everybody

I am trying to impress on you that your flippant and crass casual remarks about suicide and deoression are wrong and to get you to think a little more about such matters. When people make casual uneducated remarks about others, it's often useful to get them to think about how they would feel if it happened to them or someone close to them
What flippant and crass remarks ,be so kind as to point them out

Unless these situations resulted in physical or mental incapacity to the point of not being able to work, the people in the examples given would be in receipt of Jobseekers Allowance if they were unable to secure employment.
People coming out of care would be adults ,people abused as children grow up and become adults ,non disabled adults are expected to look after themselves
