No need to let the baby starve, if the family is unable to care for it properly the government can give it to a family that will.

[Gary L]

But not to a family on benefits who already have 2 kids.
if they had 1 kid already and this one made it 2. and then they had another baby of their own. can they throw this one back in for someone else to have?

or will the government say you'll have to keep it and decide which of the 3 will have to starve?
or can they give the new baby to a family that will care for it?

[Jimmy-J]

Better still, why not just kill the kids and have done with it, we'd save a fortune.

Or set up an official online thing where you can buy and sell them.

Ebaby.

Wonder if it ever crosses their mind that when the final child leaves home, they end up back in a one bedroomed house with basic benefits?

Seeing as she's only 32, that's a long way off.

Conceivably [sic] she could drop another 15-20.

There's a woman who lives not far from us who has 4 kids (by 3 different fathers) ranging from about 6 years old to early/mid 20's. She's never worked since she had kids in her teens and is living on benefits in a large split level 3 bedroom housing association flat. Despite being well educated and coming from an upper middle class family, she's freely admitted to us that she has no intention of ever going to work and will probably have 1 or 2 more children in the next few years. For her having kids and living on benefits is a lifestyle choice and one which clearly pays quite nicely thanks.

Although they don't need to worry about the future like those of us working to provide for it, they they only need to worry about the gap between their youngest kid reaching the end of full education and their own pension date.

Yup. Retirement from what though? Certainly not work.
