Broken Britain: Hidden Lives of the Poorest Families | Britain's Broken Families | Full Documentary

[@izzyjimz]

Just because you are poor doesn’t mean you have to live in filthy conditions. I grew up poor and our house was always spotless!

[@sharronlee4641]

Same here. And everyone was up and moving when the sun came up.

[@skontheroad]

Good point! And, at the same time, we live in a lovely, large home, with 4 kids -- 2 just graduated Uni, which we paid for (along with everything else they needed! AND wanted!), and they now live in their own apts (that we pay for as well!), all the way across the country in one of the most expensive cities in the world (as is where they were raised)! And coincidentally, they are now going to be living in the same apt building, but with their own apts, with their own friends as roommates (they won't live together, spoiled as they are... they want to live with their own friends!). We still live in our family home, with 6 bed/6 bath (and a huge back yard, and pool! That no one uses!), with our other 2 kids away at Uni, also in NY, but the school makes them dorm (and us pay for it!), so they can't live with their siblings which would save us money. I haven't been able to work since Covid, but we still have full time help (largely bc she has been with us for 20 years now and I wouldn't fire her as that is her livelihood!). Nonetheless, due to my health issues, I now have awful depression and can't bring myself to even shower and get dressed each day, let alone clean or tidy up each day! It doesn't matter one's age. Anything can set it off. One shouldn't ever judge until they have walked a mile! I was fine when I started writing this comment 10 mins ago, and now I am in tears. Anything will trigger it and sometimes even the person themselves doesn't know what it is or might be. And the closer they are the harder it is for one to recognize it and see the problem, let alone the solution. And very often, it's when it's too late anyway! Noisy neighbors won't help either, when you can't lift your head up from the pillow.... I am sure it is different in the UK, and I wish them the best of luck! I almost wish someone would come to my house and give me a once over and possibly a shake now and then! Just don't even think that money will find you happiness. Or even something that seen like it!! I often think many believe it does. But even with a full time housekeeper, and only 2 left living at home, it's a tip here by us! I really hope they don't take those kids from them. That's heartbreaking! 🤔

@@skontheroad I was in same place as you 20 years ago. Husband left… couldn’t take my depression. In and out of best care, I’m now 75. Live alone with two senior rescue dogs in a modest villa.. I have an enviable life. Many younger friends. 4 grown married children. 10 mostly adult grandchildren.. 2 married. Adore all of their partners. I have a group of 3 younger couples come to my Sunday lunch parties every couple of months. I honestly could never have imagined being this well. Probably should mention I have Parkinson’s Disease. I can’t leave my house let alone travel to Europe as I used to do. You are correct about being non judgmental. I’m in Australia… South East Queensland. It helps with grandies visits that I’m close to some of Australia’s best surfing beaches. I lost my successful career, my self esteem, my mind in fact! I just want to encourage you. My depression seemed incurable. It took a wee while but with persistence with doctors (most were no help) and the love of my family I’ve come out the other side. There’s always HOPE! Hang in there. Hugs to you from a far away land 🙏❤️‍🩹 x

As someone who’s lived in the UK for six years, a lot of these families do not want help. They don’t live in a third world country with no social safety nets. The UK has social safety nets. Choosing not to make the best of them is exactly that… a choice. I’m not going to feel sorry for “poor” Britons who’ve had all the opportunities that the world can afford them handed to them. I’ll save my sorry for women in Afghanistan or children in Nigeria, but not for people who’ve had every opportunity afforded to them.

[@Sabgav1]

I lived in London for few years as well.. I remember seeing a documentary about a man that had 20 kids and lived on the payment he got from having so many kids. He was like 60 yo and didn’t work for like half of his life. I agree with you, most of them don’t want help. I met a guy when I was working in Caffè Nero that choose to be homeless.

How sad that Sian got pregnant. She's still a little baby herself, though she doesn't know it. What a pity she didn't get onto some contraception immediately. I'm very glad she is back at a school for pregnant mums now. I hope that parenting and childcare classes are part of it. Her boyfriend is also just a dumb kid. He seems to have low self-esteem. He needs to go to a school that offers good, practical education and work skills so he can escape the trap he is making for himself. I feel that Sharon is too fragile to handle having a baby in her house and I'm not confident they very young parents will accept the huge responsibility of raising a new human being. If a truly good and loving family could be found to adopt the baby that would be best, if I'm honest. I give credit to the Thompsons for making some changes. The oldest little boy is a bright, lovely little guy. He could go far with good care and education. I hope he gets it, and of course his little brother too. It works well to have supportive mentors and even the explicit wall charts to tell them what to do. Some people don't seem to have a clue. Thumbs up to the stepdad for the efforts he is making too, seeing as his childhood was not very good either.

My guess: the working-calss has gone for ages through very tough times. The outcome are people who went through gruesome things in their childhood and will implement that into their adult lives as "normal", including self-medicamentation with alcohol and drugs. Hopefully alle the kids shown in the documentary are well today. I wish them all the best. I guess they will always remember the soft calm voice of their guardian angel.
