In my experience, and I will be the first to admit it is limited and tends to be just fathers, but in 99% of those it is the father that works and its the mother on Lucoziad. The father can't afford to work, pay CSA, pay the mortgage and a solicitor, so they go LIP, against the missus. For most men, going LIP tends to be their downfall, but they are sort of stuffed really. Presumably, if I looked beyond the hordes of dads desperate for assistance (for free if possible) I would see a bigger picture. Looks like I should get out more! Swizz Pinky, interesting stuff.
