Benefit Spongers with 9 Kids - on taxpayer funded holiday

[joebloggs]

There has to be a compromise somewhere, or maybe not

My personal point of view is that if I can't afford to support my child fully then I wont have children, maybe that's why I'm becoming at father for the first time at the age of 46

If it were up to me I'd stop child benefit after then second child, this may stop certain people churning out another meal ticket

There could be risks in having children later on in life, also less time for the father to be able to support the child thru school, college and uni, as the father might have retired

This is not really about Child Benefit which is £20.55 a week for the eldest child and £13 a week for each other child. I think it's the Tax Creds where most of the money is..

But as scouser Keith has said they are doing nothing wrong, but to stop abuse like this maybe benefits should be cut after 4th kid
