Tbf, that ^^^ is more what I was meaning, rather than you Pellowe lol, you arent scrounging benefits afaik. And working tax credits are different as obv you have to be working for them. So many girls from my school did this where they had kids at 17 and have got rid of (or dont even know) the fathers just for the benefits. But then my Mum was married at 20 and had me at 21, I'm sure she regrets wasting her life like that now, and thats not even seen as young these days!
Essentially this is the same problem as Africa though - WHY, WHY, WHY do they keep having children when they don't have food/water for themselves then expect charities to steal money from English people to pay for them. Obviously its a much worse circumstance over there, but its the same thing. If you can't afford a kid without having to scrounge off the goverment, make damn sure you're not gonna have one!
