Because Wombai there comes a time when you have to think about the kids that you've already got and how to give them the best future you can.

Alot of firms /employers only pay a certain amount nowadays towards pregnancy leave or they pay for pregnancy leave a certain amount of times before they say enough is enough. Thats presuming his wife actually works.

So how far is his pension goin to stretch if he dosn't apply for more child benifit?

And your point about young fathers. How is Steve any better? On his pension how can he contribute to his earlier kids futures financially? Dad can you help with college ? for eg
Apparently he never sees some of them never mind help them... on his pension.

Its about responsible parenting .
Steve dosn't like wearing condoms face facts.
So thats even more sprougs on the way in the next 10-15 years each with even less support than the next.
Why? Cause Steve dosn't like wearing condoms.
And judging from the character traits im seeing from him in the house i really don't think he cares too much.
