There is a perception that lone parents will try to dodge in any way they can, they want to work and to receive the lone parent allowance and they will do everything to take as much as they can from the State. Is there a perception that lone parents want it all and the Minister has a problem trying to work through what they are saying and thinking? I ask for the Minister's view as that occurred to me as the Minister was replying.
