**MOD NOTE UPDATED**Limerick woman complains about living in 3 bed house with 4 kids

KKkitty

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.

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.

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.

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 ?

hairyprincess

Funny with all the crowds jeering for her to have her 'gee sown up', her 'gee stapled' and shouts for her to keep her legs together, not one person has suggested that the father(s) of the children take care of his children. Does he have no responsibility? I only know of one immaculate conception; after that I do believe it takes two at minimum.

This woman has come from a disadvantaged area, and is doing the best she can. She hasn't given her kids away to be taken into care.

There for the grace of God I go

cloud493

Presumably the father is a scum-bag who's bolted it then. Doesn't absolve her of responsibility.

super_furry

Yes, the father or fathers of those children deserves to be castigated and should be providing for their children. However, the decision to have more children is entirely in her hands. If she doesn't have sex without using contraception, she doesn't have more children. And seeing as she can't afford to provide for those she does have, she shouldn't be having more.

That's without ever even begining to address the sense of entitlement that each of her children deserve a room to themselves at the taxpayers expense.

I know of cases where there are fathers who are living in the same house, working and claiming benefits but off the books and not down on the birth cert and not listed as living with the mother.

This way there is more state money accumulated by the couple.

Not saying that is the case here but in any event it's up to the mother to pursue maintenance.

In fairness, picking a suitable father to have children with is her priority, not ours. Repeatedly having children shouldn't entitle you to anything. Use contraception or provide for them yourself.

Now, now, now, if the responsibility card is being played then you may find the fathers will want rights as well.
Fathers rights seem very thin on the ground in this fair land.

They should take responsibility though, you're right.

If you don't like the house that you were given for free by the rest of us, there's an easy solution called buying your own house. You can make it as big as you like too.

This is the type of thing the social want called into them. If they visit the house and lets say go through the drawers in the bedroom and find his underwear there lets say, mens shower gel in the bathroom, do a bit of surveliance and see him comin n going like he is living there, stop the benefit and blacklist them. Stop the money by way of deductions from the social then to recoup the money they claimed when they knew it was illlegal and bring proceedings aginst them. An example needs to be made of a few people to show action will be taken if caught and I bet you will see a big drop in fraud like this. Thats the prob with this country is that no body is made an example off. Peoples mentality is " ah sure i'll never be caught i've been doing this for the last 5 years " :mad:

So because she requests better conditions she should get them? Where is her personal responsibility in all of this. She should have realised how expensive it is to rear 1 child and considered this before creating more.

If it's only a matter of requesting better conditions to be entitled to them, I want a 5 bedroom multi million property in Killiney...do I get it, or do I get told to 'Get a job'?

People like this who can't afford to provide for the children are selfish to keep creating them. What about the child having to grow up in these conditions?

You might think so but a whole lot who did this a few years ago and made the houses as big as they liked now block the airwaves every day demanding everybody else to foot the bill. Not a great soulution either.

In that scenario (which is NOT the case we are talking about in this thread here - lets be clear) No one is going to cut off that womans money. It's cheaper for politicians to keep throwing our money at that kind of problem rather than stand up and deal with it. Because of the risk of the knee jerk media potentially painting that politician in a negative light. There are also too many special interest bleeding heart groups out there with too much clout (imo). Besides they (the woman in our fictional scenario) would be straight down to the community welfare officer for emergency cash handouts anyway.

mikemac1

Six kids in our house and we had three bedrooms

I didn't get my own room until I was seventeen

This lady needs a reality check

Ever hear of bunk beds???
They are not expensive and the community welfare officer would even give you money for buying the bunk beds

Where's Daddy? He could assemble it for you

There has to be a bit of personal accountability here. On the dole you can barely afford one child. Going and having 5 is an incredibly selfish thing to do.

human rights rabble rabble

I'm not sure why we pay allowance to single parents (exceptions death), every child has two parents and it's about time they were made take responsibility for their accidents

Sad reflection of humanity when parents have to be forced before they take care of their children and consider their needs.


If you're going to have children, plan how you are going to take care of them before you create them - you wouldn't get a dog before considering this

If the complaint is the man is a looser etc...stop having sex with losers and get to know them first.

And I don't believe contraception fails as much as people claim it does

Stupid parents.. disastrous consequences for the children

Why doesn't she provide better conditions for her kids to be brought up in? Like not further overcrowding an already "overcrowded" house (which it's not by the way)? It's not anybody else's responsibility to look after her bloody kids, it's hers.

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.

Bunk Beds. Tbh I don't think you should call this woman a tart when you were literally room-less cause your sister had fellas over. Harsh? Yeah, so were you.

True, she should have personal accountability for her life, but where is the father?

Thats not an unreasonable question to ask. Someone must have gotten her pregnant and fathers are not glorified sperm banks. They should have more rights, and with more rights comes more responsibiliies too.

jesus windsock are ya tolling ????

who in their right mind has MORE ****ing kids if they think the house is not up to scratch and its so bad ( in her opinion ) it might kill her kids ???

and sorry, but if the state has to feed and clothe ALL your children then stop having kids - its as simple as that , if she cant keep her legs closed then for the sake of the rest of us GO ON THE ****ING PILL :mad:

me and my wife work mental hours to finance our family and we cant cant have anymore because i cant AFFORD any more , why ??
becasue im paying for pond scum like this tramp

now back to your high horse ,its leaving **** on the public highway

and the most annoying part that no one has highlighted is how in gods name was she able to get 90 minutes of ANYONE'S time over this spurious crap ??? let alone the mayor !!!

do you know what - the scum really do run this kip
absolutely no point in trying to be a decent tax payer in this country
just be a cu2t and take the piss all the time - i really scratch my head over gee bags like her - i live in a estate full of these wastes of oxygen

one family close to me have 4 daughters , all are single mothers with 2/3 kids each , ALL have council houses in the same estate as their parents , no work between them , never have done a day , so from one waster family we now have 4 , and watch the mindless rats multiply

What annoys me most is that she doesn't seem to have any idea of how lucky she is to be in a council house in the first place! The kids I work with are in inner city flats, the whole bottom floor all boarded up... place falling apart. Whole families in one/two bed flats. Cases of parent(s) sleeping on fold out couches in the sitting room. All the kids in one bedroom, 3 boys sleeping in a double bed in one family.. Another family with a little boy who has 3 sisters, so he had to leave the bedroom and he's on the couch. New baby keeping him up at night too. Poor lamb. She's so ungrateful! Other families with newcomer kids, Roma especially might have 3 or 4 families in one apartment! There is extreme poverty in this country - she is not a priority imo.

I'd say she is far from stupid. The SW will fall over themselves to appease her. Again

Do you work, do you have a mortgage, kids, loans. Do you have money/job worries?

Another aspect of Bertie's legacy is a huge minority of professional scroungers who will never do anything but be a drain on society. Most of her kids will no doubt follow in her footsteps and procreate proportionately, whilst another huge minority are skyping their families from far away.
