Keep your legs shut! [rant]


My OH's cousin has 5 kids. To 5 different fathers. She has been having kids since she was 14. Now she is pregnant with kid #6, and you guessed it to father #6. And the only reason? Because she wants money from the father and the payments from the government. She can't even look after the kids she has, and now she's going to have another. It makes me so angry when a lot of special ladies who want kids have so many problems. If you can not afford t raise children, then why have them?

Lmao aww bless yoo carley getting all angry <3

People like that take advantage of having kids for the wrong reasons and deserve nothing in my opinion.

There are alot of people as you said who want a baby for the right reasons and will love and care for them properly but have trouble conceiving. I have had 5 previous losses and i am hoping this time i will be able too have a baby to love hold and care for for eternity and be a good mummy.

Just look after yourself hunni take care of bump and don't give people like her the satisfaction there discusting excuses for mothers.

Anyone can be a mother but it takes that something extra too be a mum =]]

Nor do I. She will get $5,000 after baby is born, then $1,200 every year at tax for 5 years. Then the fortnightly payments because she doesn't work and then child support. How wrong is that?

I know how you feel, one of my friends (well, she's my godson's mother) has already 5 kids and she's just 24. I'm sure soon she will be having #6. I don't understand why she keeps having babies when we all know she can't support them, she doesn't work, only her husband/boyfriend (they never got marrie) work and taking care of 5 little kids under the age of 8 is not something easy.

For me is unfair, for us, that fight really hard every month to get pregnant, and for those kids, because I always ask myself, why kind of life could they possible have when they're so many and the money is not enough?

wow does she really get that amount? I agree she should stop having kids just for money, totally rediculous!

Carley, I know exactly how you feel. When I was told I could not have children I would see people like this popping out babies without a care in the world for them except for the money. And now I am going to be a mother it angers me even more because I know there are more deserving people in this world than selfish ones like this.

now where your coming from hun, a woman in my village is on baby no. 11... and when they reach the age that child benefit is stopped (is it 16?) then she throws them out...unbelievable aint it... *shakes head*
she doesnt even go to ante natal now coz she has had so many she (in her words) "can do this with my eyes closed".. so not only is she using them as a way to earn money she is also careless enough not to bother taking care of them BEFORE their born!!!!...
my question....
where's social services!!!!?
