These children (and yours) will in time be contributing to the economy to support you in later life, the bulk of the UK benefits system works on a current funding process, so if the working population reduces, the cash for benefits reduces. Children are usually good for the economy and should be encouraged.

That is what you would hope from society.
Unfortunately, some young members of society see getting pregnant as a career move. Get pregnant, get a council house + benefits (with option to buy after two years) have more kids and get more benefits. Her kids then grow up and at 13,14 aspire the same.
It is these leaches that OB is complaining about and me too. These are the Council estate trash/ Chavs, call 'em what you want, that do nothing to contribute to society.
On the other hand, a working couple that have a child getting a £150 a week. I don't have a problem with that, but would prefer it if was given towards child care after company maternity payments run out.
