# Yes,
because people's circumstances *never* change after they've had children. No one's ever lost a job or got ill or anything.

Note: I'm not particularly against cutting benefit for high earners, though not sure if this one's been done right. Afaict, a household with two people earning 49k don't lose anything, but a single parent earning 50k does?

# Oh sure - if a parent loses a job then help them - like JSA, but it shouldn't be mandatory.
Particularly if the household has a £50k+ earner in it.

# there's something like:
if one person earns x they have their benefits cut...
but if two people both earning over x/2 will be fine...

I think.
