Having 13 children (probably to be 14) taken into care amounts to child abuse IMHO - something the courts rightly take very seriously. It appears that this excuse for a mother is yet another example of the type of person for whom no amount of advice, encouragement or assistance by the authorities is sufficient to change their attitude. In such cases more drastic action is clearly required. Perhaps loss of benefits, housing entitlement and even prison might focus her pathetic mind a tad more but that wouldn't suit those professional 'liberals' (like the 'expert' I heard on the radio this morning) who continue to make excuses for and refuse to condemn such reckless inadequates, thereby perpetuating the problem. In today's Britain you can wind up in jail for all sorts of misdemeanors but apparently there are no real sanctions for **** like this...
