It's things like this that make me wonder about responsibility in todays youth, and it's not even happening in my own country. This is a similar problem that we have here in America. Irresponsible people procreating as fast as possible, while sponging off of the rest of us who get up early in the morning and drag our asses into work. Now the father is on disability, which is fine, but if you were on disability, wouldn't you think to avoid further expenses with more children?
I'm not trying to dictate how they live their lives. If they want 20 children, I don't care. I'm more concerned about them getting equivalent to welfare in Britain. It's one thing to have children accidentally, it's happened to many people, but to actively be TRYING for children when you're saying "But we don't want to live off benefits. We want to support ourselves.", and being on welfare is irresponsible. I currently do not have children, so I can see many people judging me for judging these folks. However, I have made an active choice not to have children because I want to provide my children with the best that I can once they do come around. Houses, cars, college education, all of this has been taken care of first so that we have a solid financial foundation for when children do come into our lives.
But I digress. Children are wonderful. I have many in my life. God daughters, 2nd Cousins, Nieces and Nephews. The only concern that I have is that in all of them, their parents experienced financial difficulties with it. Now sometimes it's temporary, and sometimes it's crushing, I just want to make sure that I'm responsible enough not to sponge off of the American taxpayer for me not wanting to wear a condom that particular night.
