But I also understand about the teen mothers, we have a few here and it is depressing to see at times, but we live in a promiscuous society where sleeping around is seen as a good thing and not a bad thing.... but we digress from the thread.
I think the cost of living is one factor for people to pack in, plus lots starting families etc, in the end, luxuries go before the essentials, and racing is a luxury... |
I haven't got any issue with anyone else wanting 4,5,6, or more kids. I just don't expect to have to fund them myself through ever increasing taxes.
I live in an area where teen pregnancy is amongst the highest in the country. I stand by what i said. I have no issues with anyone claiming benefits who aren't able to work. Its just those who see it as a career in its own right who get up my nose
