i can only wish the kids will grow up to be useful members of the society instead of developing into troublemakers.

I was kidding 
- it's why I said 'chose' - it's down to the individual. No idea how the state pension system works in Oz but even if it's nonexistant everyone might be thankful for those 12 kids in the future when they're using the proud ethic handed down by their father and working hard to contribute into a system designed to help everyone (infrastructure etc) - as long as they don't all also have 12 kids each they're very likely to contribute far more than they ever cost the state I know me and mine have

Only just watched that youtube clip - totally hilarious and love the eye roll he was doing. Reminds me of a Russell whats-his-face (blond one not Brand) skit where he sings about all the things DM says gives you cancer to we didn't start the fire. In fact, hang on...

What's also irritating is that one of her bra straps has slipped and is showing. And in her repetitious state she can't fix it up.

Btw, for those who care, channel nine news Brisbane is promoting that it is, tonight, doing a story with the big family Englishman.
I want to see how he's going to pay for all this...

Family benefits, should cover it well and truly, up to $9000 PER kid if you get A B and rent allowance.
I wonder if current affair or whatever the show 9 has, will have picked up on that little point.
