I have nothing against big families as long as you can support them.. I am one of seven siblings and my parents supported us completely without PA or handouts. So I have this acquaintance on FB who posts everyday she has nothing for her upcoming baby and needs all this baby stuff and if anyone has anything they want to give her for free(BTW...She is only 17 weeks pregnant). This is baby number 4 for her and she is a SAHM. The family is on the usual assortment PA but only 1 kid is at home with her during the day the rest are in school full time. It blows my mind someone can be actually OK begging for handouts on FB and do nothing to better their own situation.

I see your point though.
i agree that would be annoying.. why doesnt she have her stuff from the other kids? most people with limited resources are good about not wasting things..
She probably thinks being a SAHM is a "right". Personally, I think it's a privilege--a privilege that comes from being married to a man who makes enough to support the family in a comfortable lifestyle.
Quoting NatashaOlivia:
I don't see the issue with her having that many kids and being on PA. If that's what she needs, then she needs it. A friend of mine wrote on facebook asking if anyone had baby things because she'd gotten rid of a lot of her newborn stuff after her son. I don't see why its such a big deal.
