This is assuming that the people who have kids instead of going to work actually are good parents. The ones who do use kids as a way to get more cash may not give a toss if the kids are fed and changed etc.,
That's the tragedy of funding this kind of parent, because those kids will grow up knowing they are not really wanted, just a means to an end, and later on because of this, they too may become a social problem.
Child benefit should only be paid for the first two children. After that you are on your own.
