They like kids and don't care if they are financially fit to care for them. They just want to have the children.

I don't know if anyone (aside from uber rich celeb types) can really "afford" kids. I have 3 and my husband and I work hard and make sacrifices to provide for them. I am sure there are people who would look down on us because my kids clothes are from Kohls or Mervyns, not Gymboree or Nordstroms. But we are providing. We have 3 because we have a alot of love to give and love the idea of our kids growing up in a larger family. Would one have benn enough? Sure, but if I had stopped I would not have known the amount of love my heart was capable of, or how truely rich my life could be.
I do agree that there are too many lazy people who do not think through the hardships and sacrifices that go along with raising children. It just comes hand in hand with a selfish society that wants what they want when they want it and no one can tell them any different.

Because they don't work and are on welfare and all they have to do is make babies. They also can't afford birth control.
I have often wondered this myself, when two people who would be the best parents in the world can't have a baby no matter how hard they try and then two other people who don't have enough love between then to raise an emotionally stable hamster have an entire colony. Then they sponge off the state and mistreat the children, who grow up to repeat the whole thing all over.

Maybe they can't afford the birth control, yeah right! There are all kinds of clinics that could hand it out, i guarantee my $30 a month on birthcontrol pills is a lot cheaper than a kid costs.
I think out of love there are some couples that just have a lot, we honestly notice them more because they can't afford them, and how they look or act, or need help. Plus a lot of times they could have gotten started with the best of intentions and good financial situations, and something happen a job loss, etc that could with that many more mouths to feed make it extremely difficult if not impossible to recover from ....

I don't know why your question was removed, but as for the answer. I have often wonder that myself. People who don't need kids have tons of them and the ones who would make great parents can't have any. I guess God works in mysterious ways, I just wish he would change the way he works on this one.

I think that they have so many kids because they love being a mother or father and have alot of love to give. Kids are such blessings and are just a joy to have. My husband and I want at least four and I think what kids really need besides the necessities in life is a loving home and a place where they can just enjoy being a kid. I don't think it has to do with how much money they make or that they can't afford things.. I just think they have a big heart and money isn't their number one priority in life. They would rather share it with their family.

It is a bit of a generalisation.
I'm not sure but I think it sort of accepted as a HUman right globally for people to be able to have children.
There are those of course who have children for the child benefit etc but I think your attitude is rather naive and your opinion rather simplistic.
Whats more important for children rather than expensive designer clothes and toys is care and attention of their parents. Many people seek not to pursue careers whilst their children are cared for by strangers and instead look after their children themselves.
The system worked years ago brecause only one parent had to work to support a household. Now it pretty much takes two parents and with so many single parents out there the problems are obvious.
What is more prudent is wy has the cost of living increased so greatly in comparison to wages? Thats not progress thats regression.

It was probably removed because its so god damn true. I know a couple other things that are ture, concerning your question. #1 People who have a **** load of kids, ecspecially ones who cant afford 'em are usually gonna be the people who cant keep their legs closed or their snake in its cage. #2. I know that when i start working, my taxes that get takin out from my hard earned money will be going to all those ****** pieces of **** people who keep having kids...like for welfare and **** like that. That isnt fair god dammit...mostly because im the responsible one here and i earned that money, but this government sucks.

To those who have mentioned that these people can’t afford birth control...the health clinic provides free birth control. There is no excuse to bring children into the world KNOWING that you cannot afford to support them. But some people aren’t concerned about that because they know the taxpayers will foot the bill (in the U.S. at least).

I once asked why expensive coffee shops always have deadbeats and druggies around, when they are supposedly badly off on welfare. That was also removed. It seems we may offend all those dysfunctional people who drift happily through their days with massive handouts, welfare and often, crime. Same with your question... they get more money that way than working their little butts off like the rest of us.... :(
