Failed mother of 13 pregnant again!

13 children to date, all 13 already in care and yet another probably to follow in due course in which case she's apparently claimed she'll just carry on procreating until they let her keep one.....

What can realistically be done about irresponsible people like this whose negligence represents such a risk to their poor offspring?

Is it just me, or do that couple look suspiciously like they were already related before they had kids?

Just told my partner about this one and their comment was that it's a good excuse for a trail on permenant sterilization of people like this...

and I tend to agree

How bad at parenting must they be to have all their kids taken into care?

Nope they are treating you as a potential danger to the lives of your children so it doesn't get to that stage.

There was an MP up here a few years back calling for women addicted to drugs to be put on long term contraception. Quite predictably all the rest of them freaked about it being against their human rights and reminisant of the nazis.

And yet people have no problem stopping people from having animals (eg dogs, horses) if they mistreat them.

What a conicidence - having the same number of children as your IQ.

Nothing unfortunately

Mum has just been given a 10 day old baby who's suffering both alcohol and drug withdrawal, she's a lovely little thing and doesn't deserve ths start in life. But one thing is for sure, she will be taken permanently by the courts and adopted by people who really want a child and can't have one for whatever reason - so some good does come of it

have her steralised that will sort her out and stop her

If she can keep getting up the duff and cope with the pregnancies with her 'disability', why is she 'too sick to work'?

It *might* be a vicious slur but just maybe she is one of people who exaggerate their symptoms in order to get the higher level of benefit payout and provoke headlines in the Daily Mail.

Her condition apparently ensures she has to spend a lot of time on her back.

sterilization would be the only thing to stop her by the look of it, it's folks like her who get those who genuinely need the benefit system tarred with the same brush.

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...
