Reading the feedback I can see that a lot of people are reacting negatively to your question. The way I see it is you seem to want to know if having a baby will increase your likelihood of getting a flat/house paid for without you having to get it yourself. I may be wrong, but if this is the case then may I suggest you rethink the consequences of making such a decision. If in fact this is not your intention and you truly feel that having a baby is what you want from your life even at your young age, then my advise to you is make sure you know the options that would be available to you before you go ahead with it. Babies are very expensive people to keep clean, fed, entertained, educated and happy! Good luck and I hope all works out for you x

I woulnt have a baby just to get a house because that is stupid get house first and be financialy sorted before you have kids im 23 and my husband is 31 and we pay a morgage i want kids soon but im waiting till ive a bit more money and can afford to stay off work you want your kids to have the best start in life.this is just my opinion and yea you proberly would get a house as youve been wit your partner for a long while but you are too young live for a bit and make sure you find the right partner as you dont want your kids without a dad.

Thats an excellent idea, have a baby and get a council house. Your partner will probably up and leave coz you are both very young and chances are will grow up and grow apart, (I am speaking from experience here) then you will be a lone parent living off the state!
Where the hell did all the young girls with ambition and common sense go?! There is more to life than churning out babies in your teen years.
Good luck with it!

Be really honest with yourself. Have you lived enough yet to be able to give a child the love and security it would need? Do you have financial stability yet? Why the hurry? Live a little. Finish your studies or get a job so you can save money for a house where you choose to buy / rent it. Enjoy spending time with your boyfriend. Travel. Go out. Have fun. Live a little first. Enjoy being young and then go for the nappies, sleepless nights and all the rest that a child brings in a few years time.

Having slightly one does not immediately recommend you would be granted a council abode, you need to be compelled to stay in a hostel till now being priority on the housing checklist or maybe then you certainly ought to ne dup in an fairly undesirable property and is that the place you may easily decide for to deliver a newborn up. additionally how might you arise with the money for the hire do you have a job - accomodation isn't the only element to rigidity approximately whilst questioning of having slightly one and you're nonetheless very youthful. savor your existence and once you're 18 flow to nightclubs and have relaxing as a replace of being caught being an entire time mum

depends where you live - in Scotland there is a 10 year waiting list. my friend has 3 kids and her husband and self staying in a 1 bed flat because there is no houses available. If your thinking of having a baby just to get a flat or house I wouldn't bother. The council tell you to sublet. 10 years ago I was staying in a flat with my daughter and grandson and she got one after 5 years as we were classed as homeless and I have another 10 years to wait.

WHAT !!! you want a baby to be your stepping stone to a council house, how can you plan on doing this, normally people get their home life sorted out first, how can you bring a baby into the world if you have no home and are relying on the state to provide for it !!!

You might do, but chances are you'll be pushed around unsavoury lodgings until you're given something permanent. Also, it could take a long time - there's a massive waiting list in our area.
I hope you didn't get pregnant as an escape route - because that isn't what council houses are for.
Best thing for you to do is go to your local housing office and put your name down... Your age might go against you though!

Judging from this and your other questions, you really need to think a bit. A baby's not a toy, a fashion accessory or a way to obtain accommodation. According to what you say you've been with your partner since you were 14, you haven't finished being a girl yet!

don't be in such a hurry to take on responsibilities unnecessarily. my friend is 22 with 2 young kids. her boyfriend cheated on her, then got that girl pregnant aswell, so she's living on her own and the only available flats are nearly an hour away so now she's completely isolated with 2 young kids and no support from her ex. it's better to wait until you can support yourself and make your own choices rather than having to grin and bear whatever the council can give you
