I don't understand why people complain about the cost of childcare, when abortions are free.

Because abortion only became legal after they had them :rolleyes:

OP, why did you create this thread?
It’s not wanted, is of no value to society and should be aborted.

My wife and I have decided we can't afford to have children.
We're going to tell them this evening.

Contraception does not work all the time,
people have sex when they are not sober.
We need more young people , young people will be worker,s ,tax payers
in 20 years .
some small towns in japan are just populated by old people .
20 per cent of young people in japan do not have sex,
no girl friend,s or boyfriend.
The birth rate is very low.
1000,S of People retire every year,
for the tax system to work , they have to replaced by young workers .
In the system we have now , if you want a council house, you have to have 2 children at least.
Is it your opinion that only well off middle class people should be allowed
to have children ?
Most people are not economic experts,
when people have sex , they do not think can i afford to have a child.
I Think its very cynical to think that people just have children
to get a free house .

Simple solution is childrens allowance up to 2 children only- if you want more than that **** off and pay for them yourself. There’d be no more Margaret Cash types with a system like that in place.

Yeah, the cut off is when the youngest is 8 now, I think. Someone I know just had their second kid with a different daddy, he just turned 9 this Summer. The boyfriend pretends he lives in his own 4 bedroom house which he rents out rooms in when he actually lives out of a suitcase with her. Been going on for 3 years, so he's cashing in on the rental and she's getting her benefits and her rent allowance and not doing a tap of work since she was in her 20's, despite being healthy. She's been getting away with the bogus single mammy thing for a while now.

Why not report her to social welfare? If you're so sure that this is what is happening.

When it comes to children our mobile friends are not the problem. It's the extended dole dynasties, where the last person to work in the family was great, great uncle Anto, who went for a stroll in 1964 and accidentally got a job, and became the black sheep straight away.

It's easy to locate those council funded spawning estates by the clouds of benson and hedges smoke, the road verges littered with dutch gold cans and pajamas being the preferred attire of the walking wombs, probably to provide easy access for any lad willing to have a go at increasing the tramps dole money.

Lads, instead of constantly giving out on a forum, why don't you report them?

It’s a simple law, fuc all after 2 children even after 1 .
These people can’t mind themselves and they burden the state ,and more importantly us with there baggage.
2nd and 3rd generation no workers in the family only scrounges!

Jonathan Swift had an idea nearly 300 years ago, written in a little piece called A Modest Proposal (For preventing the Children of Poor People From being a Burthen to Their Parents or Country, and For making them Beneficial to the Publick). I'm sure not everybody would go for it, though.

Because they never raise their perception of life above the social aspect.

'should I have a child?' 'should I bring life into this futile existence? ' never comes into it, their highest level is the pursuit of their social instincts and material goods.

To a jayo or a jacinta it doesn't go deeper than having a plasma screen and a bleedin deadly car.

No why, only how. Like a donkey after a carrot.

And what pray tell is your highest level of pursuit, oh man on internet at midnight on a Tuesday?

Well it's higher than most of those folks who can't, or don't choose to plan their children.

Surely parents should know if they can afford a 2nd, 3rd or 4th kid? Plus abortions are free, so there's no excuse anymore really.

If I'd known that I'd have gotten myself aborted ages ago.

Maybe we could reopen the magdalene laundries and mother and baby homes?

From what little I've read on them they seemed to be fantastic Irish institutions. We would be the envy of the world once again with these places back in operation. Can only see the upside to this plan.

Make Ireland Great Again.

Yeah that particular aspect wouldn’t be too MEGA now would it
