    A Conservative councillor has come under fire after he said that the problems of food poverty in his district were caused by families having children that they can't afford. Should we should have kids if we can't afford them? Is it ever that straight forward? Is good parenting down to your bank balance? The panel discuss.

    If you even consider the fact that the government is going to help you or should help you with your kids.. you're so out of touch with reality

    children are like yachts and penthouses. If you cant afford to have them dont get them.

    WOOOOOOW poverty is because people aren't cared for by government? Yikes. There's that saying here in America, "The scariest sentence in the world: I'm from the government and I'm here to help."

    Easy answer: _ABSOLUTELY NOT!_ Even if you _CAN_ afford them, can you still handle the sacrifices you need to make? I grew up around spoiled parents whom were supported by their respective parents of means, and these were the _LAST_ types of people that should've had children!

    Some people really think the tax benefits of having kids is going to be enough to financially support themselves and their kids. It's very dangerous to have this "We'll make it work" mindset with all the things in the world going on.

      Yes genius... like Finland and Denmark AND Germany. ... it's cultural and the government. But you keep GASLIGHTING Yourself until you get to be 40 and CAN'T have kids

    In most cases people don’t think and are irresponsible, but the cases where a tragedy happened and made you be in poverty and struggle are the exception to the rule…

    I think Jane missed the point regarding the thing about it being a "CULTURAL issue." I don't think that meant things like some places you have lots of kids, or some religions you have lots of kids, and so on. I think the cultural issue referred to is people like Stacey actually, who say it's the government's job to care for you, your family, and your kids. "The government" is not some mystical place where money is held, it's literally the money everyone pays. And sorry not sorry, I'm not at all interested in having to pay to support people's kids when they can't afford them. (I'm not talking about people who have a typical number of children and fall on hard times. I'm talking about people who keep popping them out when they are already wholly or mostly dependent on welfare.) You're having money taken from those who behave responsibly then paid for those who behave selfishly and it's just not on. This is the same type of issue I'd have with socialized medicine - the system being weighed down by those who CHOOSE to endanger their own health and then require massively expensive care. Things like smoking, excessive drinking, drug use, eating junk to the point of morbid obesity, and so on.

      Some people have disabilities that stop them from working, does that mean they shouldn't want to be a parent and have a family?

    So in essence, they are saying that only the rich and wealthy should have many kids.
    I had 10 brothers and sisters by the same father, and we did fine.We weren't on welfare neither.

      You're looking for an insult where there is none. They are not talking about your situation. They are talking about situations where there are children added to families when the family is already on welfare and a drain on society. People who are long-term reliant on welfare, not people who fall on hard times and work to climb out of the hole they're in.

      Let me set the record straight.
      The rich have been ripping off the
      multitudes through tax shelters and
      philanthropy schemes.
      They are thieves.
      Moreover, Donald Trump gave hundreds of billions of dollars to corporations, during the pandemic, yet they don't even pay their fair share of federal taxes.
      It's the rich looking out for the rich. He was the fox guarding the chicken coops.
      I don't condone those who are on
      welfare who shouldn't be, but let's not overlook the big thieves.
      God said that the stock market is being manipulated by the elite through insider trading schemes.
      Do you know that 90 percent of traders lose money? Google it.
