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.

totally agree she needs her fanny sown up or something

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

Contraception isn't a solution to an accident.

To get pregnant once is unfortunate, repeatedly is careless.

Staple her gee shut until she learns that her kids are meant to fit inside a house and not the house around her kids!!

The more hand outs people get, the more they expect.

I used to do voluntary work in a place that gave free meals to anyone who wanted, no questions asked. I overheard two men talking one day as they queued to get their free meal.
"Look at the state of the walls, you think they'd paint the place"
"Ah sure they don't give a f**k about us"

I went to work there thinking I would feel good for helping people but I left after a few months because of the attitude of the people there.

One day we had a BBQ for kids and parents, we provided tons of burgers, sausages, buns, rolls, sauces etc. All free of charge. I spent hours cooking for no pay and I think I heard 1 mother say thanks. One screamed at me for not providing forks. They threw all their rubbish all over the place even though there was bins provided.

How Many "accidents" can one person have? if she thinks the place is unsafe why bring more kids into the house?

In general terms if i cant afford more mouths to feed i dont creat them

She's complaining the house is too small for 4 kids and now decides to have another. A responsible adult would actually have the sense to think "maybe now isn't the right time". In the case of people like this, its more "a sure the council will sort out a bigger house anyway". Jaw dropping sense of entitlement where there is absolutely none deserved.

5 accidents. She's very unfortunate isn't she:rolleyes:. She should get compensation

with a fifth child on the way, Serinna has said enough is enough.

Her partner "Toyota" was unavailable for comment.

There is a legitmate concern surrounding the piping and carbon monoxide issue especially with young children but as it's a council house it's not supposed to be the Ritz-Carlton ffs.

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

In fairness, the opening line of the article is:

A MOYROSS mother of four says she is “in despair” at having to look after her children in a three bedroom house.

So wasn't just something the OP plucked out of the air.

How many 'accident' children does she have to have before they become on purpose...

If this really was an accident and she was using contraception which failed, she would be the type to have a lawsuit filed

Maybe she planned some, maybe not...maybe there are even more sinister circumstances. I don't know and neither does anyone else in here baying for her gee to be sewn shut and to never have sex again.
All because she has requested better conditions to bring her kids up in. There is hardly a shortage of empty shells to move into.

I have 3 brothers and an older sister and when I was little I literally had no bedroom. My sister was an adult and had boyfriends over and stuff so she got her own room (the box room is too small for 2 people anyway). I just had to sleep in the sitting room or wherever there was a spare bed. I didn't get my own room until I was 16.

Bloody short changed or wha'? But this auld tart needs to just deal with it like everyone else does.

People dont want anything other than to be able to hurl abuse, they dont want solutions or to understand the issue. If you end up in this situation your fcuked, your a lazy, ignorant slut who cant raise a child and you only have yourself to blame. And if you do one damn thing to try improve things for yourself your an ungrateful greedy cnut who should be happy with being privileged enough to have such fine folks casting their ill founded judgements on ya.

Thats what I've got so far anyway. Good thing she's not a foreign national or she'd really be in for some abuse.

Take a bit of responsibility for starters.

As one of the comments at the bottom of the article points out, she is living there for 5 years and is going to have 5 kids soon. So assuming the other kids are over 5, she had three kids in a 3 bedroom house which is not overcrowding.

If she hadn't planned to get a bigger house on her own, she should have taken more care when having a family.

Whats to happen if/when she has another 5 kids. Should she be entitled to ask for a 10 bedroom mansion out the country?

KKkitty · 23-04-2012 05:01PM

There was 12 in total in my immediate family living in a 3 bedroom house and we coped just fine. That woman should be grateful for what she has.

Pfft thats one way of putting it, trying to improve things for yourself?

I would consider trying to improve things for yourself as working your way out of that situation, not complaining that the free house you got isn't big enough for your ever increasing family.

There was bould woman who lived in a shoe.
She had so many children, she didn't know what to do.
When giving up sex as her fanny was red;
she stuck to tit **** and some occasional head.

I worked on council housing for a while doing repairs. In my experience she would not have been moved into a house with blocked ventilation on the boiler and no plaster on the walls in the sitting room in any part of Ireland. Instead the plaster would have been damaged after moving in with a expectation that it should be repaired immediately. And the boiler would have been blocked by either her or her children. Sometimes because the kids are just plain stupid and sometimes because the parent is just plain stupid. Sometimes both. If they had died from it, it would have been a effective evolutionary filter.

There is more to the article than the opening line. The LL is another rag that is imo trolling this story from both angles.

Whether she has 10 children or 1 she is entitled to a safe house to raise the children. The housing in alot of Moyross is poor quality and the reason the regeneration was started and more or less abandoned as our Government bail the banks.

Morlar · 23-04-2012 05:12PM

Does anyone know - if that childrens refferendum passes will people like this then be able to sue the state for allowing her children to live in such overcrowded conditions ?
'Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder' and all ?
