What the petition asks
I am a mother to 4 children. Not all my children are entitled to EMA because we earn too much. Why should our children be penalised by the Government when EMA is for the child and not the parent? It unfair for all children in further education.
Without EMA children like mine don’t have the money to do what their peers do. I have also spoken to other parents who feel the same way as I do and feel that our children are being penalised by the government.
