If you can't afford to take care of them and provide for them, don't have them.
Ex nj jw, that may be correct in the USA but in Europe most countries are offering ever greater incentives to women to have more children because the population is in serious decline. For the USA it makes no difference because regardless of how the internal population fares they can always take in immigrants to make up for any failure to replenish the population through the country's birth rate. The USA is no doubt an attractive destination.
In the long term a declining population means serious economic consequences.

Well things work differently over here in the UK. I have to ask, if someone loses a job through no fault of their own and they have children already then would you say they should have to 'pay' for their not having a job? Because I do not think that a persons life should be put on hold because they are unable to get themself a job due to employers turning them down, or where they are fired from a job due the the employer deciding they can employ a different person for a lower wage, ie a less qualified person. The problem is that a person disability can show up at some points and not at others, problems come and go as I well know. Yes I have a disability, as do several other people I know. Its not always playing up when people are looking, yet when your alone it feels like your in hell because of the pain. People should be allowed to have as many children as they wish to without others being critical of how they choose to live their lives, why should they be judged because they are unable to provide a decent home and living for their children if they work. It should be said that the problem is with the employer, they are not paying the people are the 'bottom of the pile' enough, they are too willing to cut wages and sack people just because it saves them money. So really the question is why has it come to people who choose to have a larger than normal family resorting to being on benefits instead of in work to keep their family afloat moneywise. Yes I would say that the problem is that too many people are not being paid a decent wage, and the people at the top are being paid too much. This results in people feeling it is not worth their while to work. Maybe you should be making a fuss about that instead, because if there wasn't that problem then people may feel more motivated to work. And again on the topic of having children, they say it costs £100,000 to keep a child over a their childhood, if that is true then most people should never have children. But as I know it costs a lot less than that. I personally don't see why there is so much a fuss being made with regard to this family, considering the amount of government officials there who happen to be earning over £70,000 a year, and basically they aren't worth that in my opinion. Remember what I say, I'm not to fussed what you say in response, its only your opinion, and mine to me is worth twice as much, this is something you learn when you take a degree in psychology :P!

Mary:
You are absolutely right about JWs who are leeching off the system collecting benefits for one thing or another. Sadly, most of the ones I know are from a certain ethnic group which I won't mention because of people's sensitivity. But, it can be found in all types of JWs. If I knew of any JW who was collecting benefits and working on quick-builds or any such thing I would PERSONALLY report him!!!
I do believe that the stance of the religion being against education and looking down on secular work is reponsible for the large amount of DEADBEATS and CON ARTISTS that are in this religion. This breeds desperate people and desperate people find a way to justify this type of thing. I absolutely hated their guts for this.

No they're not Witnesses. But because I made the comment that they should consider joining the Witnesses, you decided to start beaking off about it like a total nutbar and here we are. As for you not answering the questions I posed I'll ask you again: Why are you here? You know it's an anti-Witness site, yet you claim to be "loyal" to the Organization, I've shown you evidence that the Governing Body does not want "loyal" ones like yourself on here, yet you continue to post? So just answer this one question: Why are you on this site when the 'Slave' class tells you not to go on sites like this?
