I would never have had 7 kids. I would never give up work AND ask for a bigger house to make life easier for me when I have more kids. I wouldn't brag about it in the national press. So you are wrong.....
it couldn't have been me.

You missed the point a tad.
What if you were one of the 7 kids? You can't choose when you were born and to whom.

For the benefit of The Droveway and others..
Oh I should join the happy, clappy club should I? Good, that's the nations finances sorted then.
Absolutely correct Bozza, but as I said earlier, 'a few sacrificial lambs etc.'.
Shit happens.

There has been some serious bollocks written on this thread. Some of you should take a long hard look at yourselves before spouting your Torie bollocks. It's obvious the welfare system is in need of reformation but some of the views expressed her just make me wonder about the mental health of the authors.

Having lots of kids is not the issue. Its the parents attitude that is abhorrent.
My parents had eight kids. We had some support from the State, such as help with school uniforms, free school meals and second-hand gifts at Christmas.
But, my dad worked all his life, cycling a total of 15 miles every day to his job as a hospital porter, and my mum had numerous part time jobs as a cleaner. She also bought and sold second-hand cots and prams to raise money for our little luxuries.
We had few holidays, certainly none overseas and most of us cycled wherever we went.
Looking back, I am so proud of what they did.

Thats nothing.
My dad dragged his torso eleven miles over broken glass to work (he's got no legs), where he would work from 6am right through until 10am the following day, 7 days a week. By the time he got halfway home, he'd have to turn round and go back to work again.
My mum would whittle our toys out of discarded potato peelings, shaping them into little floppy replica iPods for us. My sister was on the game with the local paraplegics club, and she'd use my bed with them while I was trying to sleep in it (my bed was a broken three-wheeled trolley from B&Q by the way).
But we all turned out alright.
Scumbags are stealing YOUR money. They are thieves. Tell you what, give me your address, I'll pop round and burgle you and you can go all soft and sympathetic on me too?
Wake up! You are being robbed on an ongoing basis.
Kids today eh? Don't know what they're missing.........Ricketts, Diptheria, Ringworm etc..

No - I meant in terms of the kids. They didn't ask to be brought up in that environment. We all have our parents as an accident of birth.

Ta Bozza.
That is exactly what Frank Field(one of the few Labour M.P.'s who often talks sense) has suggested.
I understand this is one of the suggestions he will be making in his report on poverty to the new Government.
