Isn't that what caused the problem in the first place

Jupitus said:Kenneh is right, but things will change. They have been getting worse for decades and will continue to do so. Lack of discipline, lack of morals, slack parenting.
throdgrain said:I disagree really. It gets worse every year, not better. And our "do the right thing" way of thinking only exacerbates the situation.

Escape said:I'm all for supporting people who've been forced into a situation.
But in some of these cases, people are taking advantage of that support by putting themselves in the situation.
Tom said:1) No corporal punishment
2) Zero parenting skills
3) Trash television
4) State assistance
If I were president for a day, those are the 4 things that would get my immediate attention.
brooky said:Maybe they are a tad stupid to get pregnant at an early age, maybe the law needs changing so that they have to pay back part or all of the money they get when they are older, but come on, dont slag them off, we support people in this country and it seems like these people need support.
Scouse said:If I had my way nowadays you'd be able to get a licence to shoot these type of retards on sight. They're a fucking cancer on society and contribute nothing but misery and financial drain, to the detriment of decent hard-working people.
Society's got an infection - and if I had one like that I'd get it cut out and landfilled.
:grrr:
yaruar said:society also suffers from a high level of disenfranchisement and deprivation. If people actually read the article one of the girls has got a few of her GCSE's (which is more than a lot of people from deprived areas get) and is going to continue stydying with a view to getting into IT, that isn't the attitude of a scrounger. TBH one of my best friends fell pregnant by accident when she was in her teens and is just about to graduate university (although is getting paid benefits, etc which allow her to live whilst studying) and try to make something of her life...
It's not always a simple situation. I'd struggle to feed 7 people on 30k a year, i have enough trouble staying out of debt earning that much on my own.

Nah. The first paragraph is vague, the second paragraph makes it clear.Three schoolgirl sisters all with babies have defended living rent-free in a council house on benefits worth more than £30,000 a year.
Julie Atkins and daughters Natasha Williams, now 18, Jade Williams, 15, and Jemma Williams, 14, survive solely on benefits of £600 a week - an annual income of about £31,000.

I would love to hit you with a big fucking stick whenever you did something wrong. Honestly.
