the man with 20 kids?

[rugeleyboy]

did anybody watch this?

if you did see it, don't you think the small boy wrapping himself up and falling to sleep on the landing because they forgot to put him to bed was the saddest thing you ever did see?

[legend.verde]

Thats a real british family though innit?
Remember that next time someone talks about british traditions.
they are the new tradition ,living in a house near you.

if youre unlucky.

Just watched it now (cheers Sleepy!), the saddest bit for me was them leaving the dog behind- I had tears in my eyes when that happened.

[rugeleyboy]

in all honesty B00, when they left the dog behind i thought to myself "thank god for that".

they struggle to keep the house clean without the smelly unwashed dog leaving it's odour.

i just hope the dog has been re housed somewhere decent.

20 kids?

Give me 2 housebricks & I promise he won't have any more.

This prog was so sad! I think the worst bit for me was when the mother sat there with the butt of a rolly in one hand and a can of Strongbow in the other, whilst the kids were being chased by coppers outside saying "But I've tried everything to control them" (or words to that effect). Yeah, sure looks like it love.

In fairness, the dog looked in better condition than most of the kids, espeically that lickle one, Jordan-Lee, I thought somebody was going to tread on him when he was curled up on the landing. The dog will probably have a better life without them now anyway.

I hope that the two girls manage to get their heads down and make something of their lives, poor little mites.

Never seen it but was discussed this morning at work, and a fellow worker made us laugh and made us think, she said it was a shameless kinda love not the best but at least the children loved him after reading ure comments have to watch to make my own judgement

[tigerlily11]

Why did any one think it would be a good idea to give this moron air time at all.
Why didn't they just hand the evidnce over to a child welfare org and have them done for child negelect which obviously seemed to be.
The dog was lucky. its sad to think that more would have been done to help the dog than the kids.
All 20 kids needed help as well as the dog.

[doglady]

I can't see the camera crew just leaving the dog there on it's own.

That was awful when they forgot to put the kid to bed.

I was working out that �27000, per person, it's �25 per person per week. I bet that'd be quite hard if it had to fund 20 adults, but it was clearly all going on alcohol and cigarettes and none on childrens clothing or sheets.

And they said he was an alcoholic like that excused it all.

Shocking!!!

[firewatch]

I watched ten minutes of this and has to turn it off it broke my heart to see so many children being poorly treated.

The fact that when he finally got some cash after Christmas, by selling an unwanted present he went and bought booze for himself and nothing for the kids?!! and using the buggy as a booze carrier rather than for the tot!

I have watched a program from America called kids by the dozen, and the parents are hard working people, not dole quee dossers who would not know what a hard days work was if it jumped up and bit them on the a�$e!
The mother should have been sterilized after number three!

I wanted to weep for the poor mites, look at the oldest, she cooks the meals, why in heck don't the parents?

[Velvetee]

I've recorded it and saw first 15 minutes. That layabout is a piece of pikey scum and it sickens me, he's had so many kids, so he can leach as much money off the state as possible. I couldn't believe it when he said he couldn't work because he was an alcoholic and eplileptic.

The sight of him putting loads of cans of lager in the pushchair, made me want to take one and beat him about the head with it, which would hopefully have induce a fit and ended his miserable waste of a space life.

[greenylegend]

Mind you.Is he the modern version of the old lady who lived in a sahoe?

She didnt even have a partner!!!
