To think it is ridiculous that a woman with 11 kids is getting a £400,000 house for nowt

[angelos02]

Especially when most working people couldn't never afford to live somewhere costing that much?

She did

OMG !! I hope she wasn't given to a spits middle class family

Boney - I get that, a 17 year old getting a 15 year old pregnant then yes perhaps legal discretion would be used, but this man was 9 years older.

To me that's fairly clear its legally, ethically and morally wrong.

Unless you're one of the judges who think young girls are 'asking for it', 'acting like a Lolita' etc

Sorry, just totally disagree with you on this one. I can't understand how it can be anything but abuse when one is 14 and the other 23.

Happy to agree to disagree though.

Viviennemary - you are right, but the point should be expanded to say that no job would ever pay the amount this woman would require to support her 11 children and pay her share of the childcare (as the State does not pay 100%). I seriously doubt she is living the life of riley on benefits.

Jake - did you report to SS if the 3 year old was clearly being neglected?

How would you know? You only have two.

Are you referring to my foof? Oh I know.

What do you think her motives are then?

Hold the front page ! the horse has just been interviewed on tv and says " to all you neighsayers (sorry) when you need your smug paid for with you own tax contributions in the old folks home where you are undoubtably bound forbum wiped,your drool wiped, your mashed banana dinner fed via a straw, and just maybe your adult nappy changed because you have soiled yourself again , a young person will no doubt be doing all the aforementioned ,and where do young people come from?"tax.

wow, thats how u get a big house, only 9 more children to go.... in all seriousness though, its rediculous, i have no other word for it. I know everyone should be entitled to have children and if you're paying for them by working then fine have as many as you like. I do think though that after 2 children they shouldnt give you tax credits or child benefit imho

I'd forgotten about the childcare element. Under the new rules, if she has to get a job goodness knows how much she would qualify for in childcare. Maybe they should have built her own private eco nursery annexe!!

I suspect her motive is to keep herself and her children alive. Selfish eh?

Or perhaps they should just leave well alone.

I suspect her motive is to keep herself and her children alive. Selfish eh?

What is her motive in having so many kids? That was my Q. You seem to be keen on speaking for her, so I await your response.

Mrs de vere
But I am glad you think its funny.

Show me where I'm laughing.

Definately not one of them, but I do know quite a few families that were started pre 16 with age gaps is between 2 - 14 yrs and they are not abusive.

I take each "case" on its own merits, in this one we just don't know enough.

Have to agree to disagree :)

Who the f*ck cares. And thanks for saying I am speaking for her, I like to think I try to stick up for those less fortunate than me.

This thread should be drawing to a close any minute now but don't worry there's a fat thread running elsewhere.

Evening all,

Just passing through.
