    My prediction based on the OP is that most of the interviewees in this clip have strong Dublin city accents and will therefore be automatically regarded, however illogically, as reasoable target practise for our resident trolls.
    This will be swiftly followed by an influx of people who still believe that (a) the internet is serious business, and that (b) they can, through reasoned argument, convince the aforementioned trolls to follow this belief.

    The lock from a moderator will occur around page three. Four if they're in an enterprising mood.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 241 ✭✭Chain_reaction


    Jesus...

    Did the first lady just give out about "people coming here getting everything and we're gettin nothing".

    No.


    Now they're giving out about polish. **** off.

    It's just a load of pregnant young ones from Mullingar being racist from the sounds of things.

    So the Polish are at fault... And I like the fact "it's too much trouble to try to get maintenance".


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 216 ✭✭burstbuckle


    did you hear her when he asked her "do you think having a 2nd baby was a good idea" bacially you live in an upstairs flat with a 10 month old baby & another one due & the fella's paying nothing. "well sure things happen & i love my kids & wouldn't change it".
    But I'll keep breeding like a rabbit even though I havent got a pot to piss in & I expect,No demand everything to be paid for by the few remaining tax payers in the country.

    What can we do, though, in order to stop this state sponsored retard production? We can't let them starve. But for every moronic mother there'll be multiple sprogg's that we may as a nation look forward to supporting over the next 70-80 years.

    Well we could stop stupid people from reproducing. People who make stupid posts about single mothers on message boards, for instance. We could round them up and cut the bollocks off the lot of them.

    I'm just hoping those children aren't brought up to hate. As Ireland is now so multicultural I don't want some Eastern European kid getting dogs abuse in the play ground over how their Mam and Dad have came here "took urrrr jobbsss" and now are stealing buggies from young ones.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,427 ✭✭✭Morag


    Yes yes shocking, young wemins having da babes just to get money of the state.
    Why they should round them up and put them to work some where and give the kids to
    people who can't have thier own to adopt.

    Oh wait we tried that already....

    Most primary schools where is a mix in nationalities make a huge effort to
    avoid that sort of crap early on.

    There's nothing you can do. You try to take away their benefits you end up depriving their children, who at this stage still have the potential to grow up to be decent people.

    Most people don't want to see that happen. They know this and have that hold over us. Their kids are just a meal ticket to them, the lifelong welfare they are paid is just a bribe from society so their kids won't suffer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,427 ✭✭✭Morag


    Some good news!

    The local one when you come in the door has a world map with pins in it and surrounded by flags of all the countries their students come from.

    Back in my day the foreigner was the girl who moved from Cork! and landed in 5th class with the rest of us.

    Start with proper sex ed in schools, and free contraception & contraceptive dr visits for everyone between the age of 16 and 25.

    For every moronic mother out there, there's a cheapskate father not paying maintenance.

    Did anyone else read the thread title as though Beyonce was singing it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,023 ✭✭✭Fukuyama


    I'd say most single mothers are fine.

    I think what the OP is referring to is the stereotypical single mother who can be spotted a mile off.

    They're a drain on society and will be for the rest of their lives. But hey, that's why I pay USC.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,754 ✭✭✭oldyouth


    A baby is like an iPhone 5. If you can't afford one, you shouldn't have one. Disgraceful attitude in society today that people think they can make such momentous decisions and think that the State will carry the cost.

    Don't get me started :mad:

    Are we talking about all single mothers? Is the title of the thread "post here if you hate all mothers who happen to be single"?

    No.

    So yeah, if someone were to be going around throwing random abuse at all single mothers, off you go bollock cutting. I won't try and stop you. :rolleyes:

    In fairness, it's obvious the subset being referred to in this thread. Even if they're not being exactly highlighted. Most single mothers and fathers have no relation to this discussion.

    Finding the correct father for the young ladies being interviewed would require a special task force of FBI agents. :rolleyes:

    I think we've engaged just about as many young people we can in the contraception discussion.

    Unfortunately, dropping a kid is a career move for many young girls today. You could air drop 100,000 condoms into their bedroom every week and they'd still find a way of getting a hot pocket in the micro, so to speak.

    I don't think we have, and I don't think we will until we have a nation wide curriculum on the topic in all a schools.

    Oh gosh. Given what they come home with about God, rubber stamped foreheads today, the usual, I would hardly trust them with reproductive issues.

    The benefits could be given in the form of more direct provision for children and distributed through schools (books, uniforms, meals), subsidised childcare etc. Shovelling cash into their parents only makes these kids their career choice.

    Pat Kenny regularly sends a reporter to interview people coming out of dole offices, community welfare offices and courts. It makes for fascinating listening. Usually it's those most familiar with the system that are interviewed. The system is there as a support and it is being abused by some, but not by the majority. The drug addled misfortunates coming out of the courts are the worst. Their lives are pitiful. We may laugh and point the finger, but would any of us swop with them? I think not.

    Ya sure just feed your kids with school books if you have no money. :rolleyes:

    So your kids are fed, but have no books? Is that what you're trying to say, that you can only afford one or the other?

    Fascinating and pitiful, as a freakshow with a one-way mirror... what bothers me is that the reporter then talks about them with Pat - publicly and behind their backs at the same time. He asks them personal questions about birth control, but doesn't challenge their nonsense about Polish people. It'd be better if he recorded their discussions with welfare officers - we'd get a blazing row, but they just might get some decent information.

    The poster I quoted was suggesting giving subsidized school supplies to the children instead of giving money to their mothers, hence my post.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 248 ✭✭GoldenLight


    My lovely niece and all of my great nieces and nephews, where born out side of wedlock, Sometimes their father made a decision to be part of their childs life, sometimes they decided not to, in fairness no one can force someone into being a mother or father.

    But each and everyone of them is a member of my family, and I will love them regardless, they are my family.

    So OP I don't care, if the father did a runner, **** happens and people do **** things, she had no control over it

    Well that's what I read into the quote you put up to "shame" the girl, I think she is doing the best she can.

    AFAIK we have, but it's up to each school to decide on teaching it - the dept. of Education hasn't the guts to tell school boards to f*ck off!
