Several children, have been arrested in connection with the death of an 80 year old dog walker.

What is wrong with children today? I remember the Bulger case and it sent shockwaves around the world, now people just accept that children kill.

Completely agree. I think you should get a criminal record and forced to do community service for not paying for your children. They then not only abandon their children, they go on to have other families! Yet women are blamed. Anyone would think we lived in a mysogynist society.

Yes they should be forced to do community service but they would avoid it by eating so much that they were unable to stand for long enough- or something like that🤷🏻‍♀️

Not it is not back to sterilisation. The simple way to stop women making single motherhood a career choice is to put an end to the benefits of being a career single mother. In cases like that of my husbands ex, she is more than happy to tell the world how she planned to have a child. She had it all worked out before she left school. Her plan was to stay at home, work in a cafe until she was 18 then find a bloke that would do a runner when they found out she was pregnant, get her Dad to write a letter telling the council he had thrown her out. Get the flat and all the extras that came with it and being pregnant. Her plan worked, she got the flat, she got the money for the pram, cot and highchair, she got the white goods and a grant to decorate. And 30 odd years later she is still sitting in a 3 bed house that she has never paid a penny in rent for. How many more made the same career choice?
No need for sterilisation just wipe the career off the list. Of course there are many that end up as single mothers not through choice and yes they need help and it must be given.

Did it go to plan then? Did she find the right bloke? The one who would do a runner? 🤔Your poor, poor DH falling prey to such a woman.

By the way, as SEND and neuro diversity has been mentioned there's currently a Woman's hour on the challenges mums face raising ND kids and getting them the right education
