I have five children, all by the same father, all in wedlock. And no, we are not on benefits, not even tax rebates.

Why do so many mumsnetter thinks this is totally uncool, and then whinge about their broken relationships?

What?!!?

If you're going to start a thread clearly about another thread, can you at least make sense??

PrunersOfEight · 09/11/2007 21:53

????? I suspect that many mumsnetters don't care, really, what your marital arrangement is!
Why do you think they think you're uncool?

snice · 09/11/2007 21:55

What on earth on you on about?

niceglasses · 09/11/2007 21:56

And your point is?

fishie · 09/11/2007 21:56

[rolls eyes back towards sceptic] not wanted thanks

DeathBySnooSnoo · 09/11/2007 21:59

well i must be really cool then as i have 5 children by 3 different men,only one of whom was born in wedlock

thanks,youve really cheered me up

ArmadilloDaMan · 09/11/2007 21:59

I think you must be slightly paranoid if you really think they are thinking about you.

Most wouldn't give a crap.

I don't (unmarried couple with illegitimate child - none of your business where my income comes from)

LyraSilvertongue · 09/11/2007 22:01

I have two children, by the same father, born out of wedlock and we're not on benefits or receiving tax rebates either.
So what?

Flame · 09/11/2007 22:03

I have one in, one out, same fathers, and I am in receipt of some housing benefit.

I feel sure the world of MN spends ages pointing at my name on the screen muttering about how terrible I am

No-one cares

ChubbyScotsBurd · 09/11/2007 22:03

a) I don't give a toss how many children you have, by how many fathers, married or not. None of my business, and I'm really not arsed.

b) If you don't like being judged for having 23 children by one sperm donor within a civil partnership or whatever you said, I seem to have forgotten already, then don't judge me or anyone else for having a baby but not being married.

kindersurprise · 09/11/2007 22:03

I have 2 children, by the same father, in wedlock, no benefits

I do hope that I never sound as smug and unpleasant as the OP

lou33 · 09/11/2007 22:03

what a shitty idea for a thread

(4 kids, same dad, one born out of wedlock, now on benefits after separating from him after 17.5 yrs of being together)

is the weather nice up there? where you look down on everyone else?

janeite · 09/11/2007 22:04

No idea what you're referring to but I'm quite happy living here in sin, thanks.

expatinscotland · 09/11/2007 22:04

what a lame attempt at trolling.

snice · 09/11/2007 22:05

I don't think you're uncool -just unpleasant.

2shoes · 09/11/2007 22:05

what a very odd op. so people who are married never split up?

zippitippitoes · 09/11/2007 22:06

bizarre

LucyElasticband · 09/11/2007 22:07

roll away
do you want a medal

lou33 · 09/11/2007 22:08

friday night trolling

LyraSilvertongue · 09/11/2007 22:09

Hmmm. This is the OP's second ever post on MN. Funny subject to choose.

LucyElasticband · 09/11/2007 22:10

fit to be ignored

jofeb04 · 09/11/2007 22:10
Hmm
minouminou · 09/11/2007 22:10
