I agree with all you say above.
The only thing I'd question is as to her having so many children anyway but that is done now.
Also it amuses me when people attack such individuals for having decent furnishings and even luxuries.
When it isn't even known did they buy them 2nd hand, or even did they get them given.
Also some housing and local authorities let you get furnishings and electrical items just about interest free for small payments weekly
3 times I have changed my TV in the last 5 years and each time I have,I have given,yes given the old one to someone I knew in difficulty or on benefits.
Instant 'negative' judgements when facts are not even looked for let alone even known are very dangerous things to do in my view.
