Is she mad or just darn right irresponsible ?

Trouble is one child or 44 kids you’d have to apply the same conditions… you cant morally stop her having as many children as she wants unless you can prove she needs sectioning or something I suppose whats needed is a maximum number of children you can claim benefits for

Perhaps instead of condemning this woman, someone should be offering her counselling? she clearly has a disorder, just as real as anyone with ocd, agraphobia, depression or any other mental health issue.

what makes her want twins so much? was she one of a twin and maybe the other didnt survive?

I often get accused of being too liberal, but anyone with a bit of senses surely sees that this woman needs help?

An Obsession, which could spiral out of control when she’s had about twenty five kids and still no twins! Could lead to allsorts..

very true , which is why perhaps someone with the relevant professional skills should be looking into it and offering support?

there is clearly no doubt she is an excellent mother, no question at all, but like you, i do wonder what will happen if she does get to the point where she cant have any more babies and she still hasnt had twins how her own mental health and well being will take it…..

Ok, before we go getting carried away here, I wasn’t attacking your children, just pointing out that they too, or you do anyway, receive child benefit, and that she is as entitled as anyone else!

I don’t recall mentioning anything about the way she keeps her house either, and if you care to check I think you’ll find it was jen jen who made that point. Jen jen also pointed out, that this woman had said that she had saved all year to spend the money she had on her children for christmas. Isn’t that what most families do then?

Irresponsible? ,,,,,,,,, ok well this is the second and the last time I shall point out that I did say in my original post, maybe you’d like to check, I believe it was along the lines of ”while it may seem a little irresponsible”!!!

I’m glad to see that you quite rightly pointed out that we are!! all entitled to an opinion, because that means me as well as you. It didn’t stop you from attacking me though, and I don’t believe I attacked you in any way Sarah, merely voiced (or typed if pple want to be pedantic !!) my own opinion.

and by the way jen jen, pointing out that you mentioned those things, wasn’t a critisism!!

I didn’t take it that way, I’m not that sensitive :wink:
