15 kids and counting

[AKissIsNotAContract]

Starting in 15minutes on channel 4. Anyone else going to watch this?

That poor Bradford family, they are on the bones of their arses. Im sure their hearts are well and truely in the right place.

And Fabian, that man is great! If hopelessly optimistic.....

Happy holidays then!

Aww that kids going to mortified they showed his crying on TV. Wait till he gets to school tomorrow {sad]]

oops -

They do their best. They are doing pretty well by the look of it.

They could do with a bit of help.

I think they disprove the myth that all you have to do is have a load of kids and you get given a massive council house.

Very good point MrsdeVere!

How many times a day must that poor bloke hear a little voice going 'DAAAAA-AAAD!'

I blame the Waltons.

My mother used to say why couldn't we be like them.

doesn't seem right - surely thy'll have to be re housed?

the family with all girs bar the boy live in my district

family from Bradford feel very sorry for,to many in a small house,hearts are in right place and personally think they should get a larger house especially as they took in the extra three kids,they are trying their best

and for the love of good stop going on about fruit shoots and lack of veg,typical mn hysteria

That Donna deserves a medal/5 star child-free holiday. Fabian is unbelievably optimistic.

Do you think the families got money for doing these TV programs. I've heard families who go on 1 born every don't.

I just wanted to hug Donna, bless her. Sounds like her and Fabian could do with having a break without children!!

I really hope they are getting some support from social services after taking in the extra three. Though sadly, I doubt it.

I love Fabian and Donna.

the difference a bit of space makes to tempers

also you'd think it wise to go easy on the beans when all ae so close together in a small space....

Errr, my comment on fruitshoots was tongue -in-cheek - and I couldn't give a flying wotsit if they never have an apple between them!

The Bradford family are doing their best in bloody hard circumstances. Not sure I'd be supernanny, cooking 'perfect' meals and that organised in their shoes. Or very calm.

I don't think anyone's listening to Dad in that family (of all the girls)

i hope by showing this programme the bradford family recieve some offers either though social service/council or some charity to help them in some way whether,activities for kids,anything really hope this happens

so they live in a council house then? I missed the start - if they are doesn't seem right they haven't been given something bigger.

Also a few of you are saying they won't be helped out for taking in her sisters three - not even child benifit?

I'm finding the pink lipstick very distracting.

The children are all clean, dressed and fed.
They are cared for.
They even get to go on holiday.

I am pretty sure its a very difficult family to be a member of but it has huge positives.

I would lay money that Social Services dont have anything to do with those kids and Donna and Fabian get sod all support.

In fact if I wanted to bore you all I could probably do a fairly accurate summary of the train of events from when 'mum couldnt cope' up until this point. Financial, emotional and practical support would not feature heavily.

I hope I am wrong.
