Each to their own I suppose, and fair play to her, her hubby does work. As long as the kids are looked after and happy thats all that matters really.

I don't understand these massive families myself but its funny how its more acceptable for the Duggars for instance http://www.duggarfamily.com/ than it is for a woman like her to do it lol. xxx

OMG some of the names! thats unbelievable! £4200 a month and her Husband works? 13kids+her they get £300 each and then he gets his wages aswell!!

The sad thing about this story is it doesnt seem like she cares about the rest of the children and will just push them aside untill she gets her twins! i hope that she realises that if she ever gets her twins she will have 14+ children to care for aswell!

and in a three bedroom house thats crazy!!. i dont think council houses go any bigger than 4bed do they?

As for the house surely the council need to rehouse them? The housing act 2001 says that children of oppisite sex should not share a bed room after the age of ten, although it is imposible to tell what the sex of the children by their names.
I thought as you got older you are more likely to have twins? am I wrong?

omg! regardless of anything to do with how much tax credits/benefits she gets or what impact she's having on society my thoughts r...How could u have that many children without going mad and how can u all live in a 3 bedroom house? how has she not had a breakdown!!!? and also...peppermint and blackbird (on second thoughts maybe she has had a breakdown)? they make frodo seem almost normal?!

Did anyone watch that show abt that guy who had 20 something kids (the one where the council moved them because the water stopped working only for them to find out its coz the kids had stolen all the pipes and sold them for scrap memtal...then they 4got their dog in the move?!)
he called most of the boys the same name as him so he could remember it and had them all tattooed on his back so he could keep track! that was the craziest show ever!

This is kind of like the Duggar family from my state here in the states except for the twins part. They have 18 kids and counting. There 19th child is due in March 2010.

Oh my god! Also wondering how on earth they manage in a 3 bed house....and naming your kid after a [albeit fictional] serial killer is just weird!
