I don't think anyone would say a woman on welfare should not have any more children although it would be prudent for her to reconsider waiting until she is more financially stable. I understand about the marriage breakdown. My first husband was an alcoholic, molested my oldest daughter while intoxicated. I ended up trying to complete college with two chiklren in tow on welfare living in housing. It sucked to say the least but we survived it. My children have a lot of mental scars but I am a chemist, they have a great home and we own some rentals. It has finally come full circle. I would never have considered having another child during the hardship time. It just wouldn't be fair to my other children nor myself. The woman I spoke of in the "scary" reply was just spitting kids out for the shear heck of it. She was very irresponsible and it disgusts me that we can't do anything about people such as her. She simply gave birth and said, well, I really don't want it. Her children have severe mental and physical deficits because of her abuses during pregnancy and most likely from what they endure in their current environments. It is a very sad thing. It would be prudent for our country to intervene in these cases before there are ten unwanted (by the mother) children out there. She is like a baby machine without any feelings for those kids. I have met a lot of absolutely wonderful mothers who only want the best for their kids and welfare helped them as a means to an end. But, I have also met women who spend their life figuring out ways to have more children to acquire the extra 1K per child etc. It becomes generational. Very very sad:(
