    Couples should only have children if they can afford them. I don't think it's a 'right' and I certainly don't think it's up to the Government ( OR us tax payers) to pick up the bill.

    Benefits should only be used as a safety net for the vulnerable and not an excuse to lazy.

    If you want children - work and save hard to have the privilege.

    If someone wants kids, they should make sure they can pay for them and not rely on public benefits.

    Maybe they have such large families so that they can get benefits from the government?
