Argh! I know I wouldn't be the best parent, but it just infuriates me to read stuff like this:

Mum, 28, may have 10th baby in jail
A LAVINGTON woman, 28, three months’ pregnant with her 10th child was yesterday jailed for six months on driving offences.

The rest of the story: http://www.bordermail.com.au/news/local/news/general/mum-28-may-have-10th-baby-in-jail/1619133.aspx

Thoughts?

It is startling. My focus while reading the article wasn't on the number of children she has. I was mystified how she's been caught for 5 driving offenses since the beginning of the year! I am by no means a perfect driver but I can go for most of a year without being pulled over a single time. Presumably she has to be pulled over for them to discover that she didn't have a valid driver's license. If she's really that bad a driver, I sincerely hope that she doesn't transport her children!

Yeah, it's a sad case on many levels. The Duggars on their 19th child, but they don't seem to be putting them in physical danger, so to each their own, I guess. This is just tragic. :(

The Duggar family are at least two intelligent people and making a rational choice of which they are supporting w/ their own funds. More power to em if they want to  breed like animals. However, the woman in the article is clearly not the sharpest knife in the drawer and to just continue pumping out kids like a machine is just sickening to me an amoral.
