    http://www.limerickleader.ie/news/local/limerick-s-serinna-in-despair-over-home-for-kids-1-3764536

    I know this was already posted in the limerick forum, but... are you kidding? Jesus christ, some people.

    **************MOD NOTE******************

    From here.



    Okay, people, can we tone down the aggressive name-calling of this woman, please?

    I understand that it's an emotive subject for many of you, but there's no need for outright name-calling.

    Thanks.

    UPDATE: Please don't link to this woman's Facebook or any other social media. The next person that does it, will be getting a ban.

    She is complaining about the standard of the house. Totally different to what you are trying to imply.

    She is a ****ing disgrace.

    Her 18 month old should be sleeping in her room and not passing the kid off to her teenager to babysit.

    And she is expecting another kid......Jesus H. Christ...........<snip>

    This is the fruit of our welfare system. Those that won't contribute out-breed the rest of us and whinge when we can't afford to provide for them in the manner they'd like.

    ADHD my arse, gob****e of a mother more like!

    If there was smoke coming into the kids bedrooms, and a danger of carbon monoxide poisoning, why the **** did she stay anyway?!

    Same reaction there. What planet are some of these people on. Claims her children were in danger of carbon monoxide poisoning for eighteen months, but gets pregnant again anyway..

    Cases like this are why things like child benefit should reduce when you have more children, not increase. To try and discourage people who cannot afford to have large families from having them.

    Why would any mother choose to have more children if they are already living in poor housing? This "lady" chooses to blame the government but she was the one who choose to bring at least 2 more children into this house.

    Decent housing should be provided, fair enough, but a room for every child? I may be getting old but if I was in a position where it was obvious I could not provide for the children I had, I would stop getting pregnant rather than expecting the government to cater for me.

    <snip> My parents raised 6 of us in a small 4 bed and never had anything to complain about.

    And she's having more kids? Probably to get more child benefit...

    Yes if only everyone stopped getting pregnant...

    Do you want a large family: No
    If you accidently get pregnant will you go over to England for a termination: No
    Will you give the child up for adoption when it is born : No

    Ok, you're not allowed to get pregnant, under any circumstance. If you do I will call you a slut and you and your kids deserve to live in a home that is well below standard.

    The more kids she has the happier the house will be.

    Seriously she would want to close her legs.

    there is a wonderful and cheap solution to all of that.
    contraception.

    Just trying to see where the moral outrage is coming from in here and what the woman is expected to do if she get pregnant.
