In the first of a series of films: 'Families on the Frontline', Newsnight spent time with two families to see how the squeeze is being felt by them.
One mother, Kat, is now using her local food bank for the first time having previously donated to it in the past. At home meanwhile, her television and wifi have been disconnected in an effort to save on bills.
Another mother, Sanaa, who has her seventh child on the way, is feeling the strain on the family purse as the price of food and clothing increases.

Breaking news....6 kids will always be expensive, crisis or no crisis
Hello how are you doing?
Exactly!
Seven kids is a lot of kids...no matter your financial situation.
Exactly people like her should be put in prison for making 7 more humans who can't afford to feed them
@@kushking949 the point is she used to be able to afford it, show some compassion man.
@Chris Viking
This isn't about poverty or life choices. It's about the crunch of inflation, how it's affecting households. And financially there is a general rule of thumb: your household should have enough money to survive between 3-6 months with no money coming in.
She's a stay at home mom. They have six/seven kids. No fvcking way they are that financially stable on one income. I don't think it was intentional but, this video sure showed how irrational their situation is.
@@samjones9130 She should have income protection.
@@samjones9130 No one should have that many kids they require attention
Picking a woman that has so many kids is not exactly the best example to show how the nation is going through a cost of living crisis as it's so unsurprising.
Planned
at least she is not BLACK. LOL. If she was black it would be worse. White women having 7 babies .
Perhaps the BBC could interview the elderly whom are planning serious crime so they can have free food and warm accommodation at the expense of HM legal service.
7th baby! I thought only Elon could afford to deal with that kind of number 🤔
I find that affirmation untrue. Because the interview is all about comparing the prices then vs now. If a mother with a hundred children could feed and dress them 4 years ago and now they can`t aford the same things, it`s because the price of living is generally going up.
Why do you pick the woman with a 7th kid on the way and a woman who you repeatedly focus on her vape pen? Is it because you want people to think all the poor are just irresponsible with their money by vaping and making tons of babies? That’s not why they are poor, and by focusing on those things you distract from the difficulties low income people are facing. It’s a real issue for people and they need the media to highlight that struggle as a way to rally community support to make sure lawmakers don’t forget about them in this time of global inflation and struggle. You had a chance to help and in my opinion only distracted people from caring as much as they should. Your news media shapes opinion and can be a tool for encouraging change. Use it wisely.
You see the sicko posts that their story got on here, BBC is skummy as hell this time around.
You sir/madam are very clever and have restored my faith in people's ability to think for themselves. This is very subtle implementation of the DailyMail strategy, quite well done and almost admirable. Most people would fall for the trap but you didn't.
It is sad how we criticize those who are below us on the social hierarchy. but we don’t criticize the people above use in the hierarchy. H super rich and elite who spend frivolous and don’t pay their share in taxes, and steal their workers wages.
"below the social hierarchy", but they have the numbers. Their demographics will take over by being the masses
My thought exactly
I feel badly for most people. But the woman expecting her 7th is ridiculous. Stop having kids you cannot afford.
Stop having babies when you can’t afford them.
who even needs kids in their lives, expensive and stressful
The real headline is not the cost of living. Rather, it's people who make reckless decisions to have children when they've no means to care for them.
I mean, having 1 child costs an arm and a leg for people. Having 4 kids must be really hard to manage. Having 6 and expecting your 7th, that's on you.
Hello how are you doing?
I think with an aging population the government should be encouraging couples to have more than 2 children. Like an weekly bonus for having a third child and even more for a fourth. Being serious. There needs to be more adults of working age working so OAPs can be cared for and paid for and then the pension crisis would be solved.
@@daviniarobbins9298 please where are you from?
Thats crazy Me and my husband would need to be millionaires …I dont think they know what condoms are
Six children, and another on the way. Sorry, but one has to take responsibility and live within ones means. Part of this is NOT breeding like a bloody rabbit when you can't afford to!
Couldn’t agree more
Muslims have many kids to reach majority, it's called population jihad.
100% agree !!
@@jd0604 no, no one needs to, open your eyes to whats happening in the world.
@@nick000002 She quite clearly said she could afford them - however as the prices have skyrocketed she's finding it difficult.
6 kids then starts saying how hard it is to survive? 😂😂 story writes itself
Exactly. We could half our consumption and still live like kings compared to most of the third world. Yet we're acting like we're helpless victims just because of a little inflation. Shows how woefully unaware we are of our own privilege.
@@gonnabeok Not she, they! They have the 6 kids. Her & her husband have 6 kids

That is probably normal for people of that particular ethnic origin.

I’ll never understand why people keep popping out children they can’t afford.
That’s why the taxpayer pays for them.
Yeah... Some wants to own a cricket team...😂
@@ajinkyamodgi9179 lol :D :D :D
Well said!
Thought the same.
We need to teach Family Planning all around the world, I'm 37, have a doctorate degree from an elite Institution and chose all my life to not have children or family because I knew they would suffer while I was in school, I grew up poor and my parents died early, I couldn't imagine putting my future family through that life. More often than not people suffer from poor decision making and not a lack of money
yeah, you're just selfish, you chose more money for yourself. That's fine but don't dress it as how wonderful you are. IF everyone chose the same as you you will have to work till you drop, no one to work for your retirement
@@babajaga158 People who have kids are also selfish as they're doing it because they wan to.
@@melitajay yeah right. Good argument. I have kids and I take all the money from them because I want to.
CONTRACEPTION is our only hope!
@@dianamincher6479 agree
Healthy food being more expensive than fast food and take away is a nonsense. You can buy a weeks worth of fruit and veg for the price of one family takeaway. It's ignorance of food and meal prep that is the problem.
You are right, but you must know how to shop, what to buy, and how to cook it, time to shop, and transportation also comes in to it.
Exactly!!!!
Did not some one say "They can't cook?"
Jamie Oliver’s YT channel is replaying his Ministry of Food series from 2008. Hopefully it will help some people to stretch their food budget further.
It is cheaper to cook from scratch, but when you first start it’s more expensive because you need to buy bottles and jars of different condiments and spices etc to make a certain thing, and even if you only use a teaspoon of that ingredient, you need to buy the whole bottle. Yes you’ve then got it the next time you want to make that dish or for a different recipe that uses it, and over time it works out cheaper, but if your cupboard is bare because you’ve been buying takeaways it will cost a bit to set up your store cupboard with the staples and the flavours. Short term it is more expensive, long term it’s cheaper. Unfortunately people are already so stretched that investing in stocking their store cupboard is too difficult to manage.
Takeaways are expensive but unhealthy food is cheaper than healthy.
Cooking takes time which could be spent on trying to get additional income. It also takes more gas and electricity to cook proper meals than microwave meals or instant noodles.
Some vegetables are cheap (particularly carrots, baked potatoes, etc) but most fruit are very expensive except bananas.
More to the point, you can’t live off of just simple fruit and vegetables. You need healthy sources of fat and protein and these are what are expensive. Nuts, fish, olive oil and avocados. That’s where the money goes when trying to eat healthy.
Why 6 children? When you are not wealthy…we need less humans in this 🌎
Society is a pyramid scheme. If you want to retire you need multiple younger people to pick up the slack when you stop working.
SEVEN CHILDREN!? Well, I think I cracked the code.
Muslims have many kids to reach majority, it's called population jihad.
Hello how are you doing?
There is not shame in letting children wearing the same clothes regularly.
Totally agree Samantha, but would you agree that it is a shame that children that are threadbare and perhaps with holes?
big families always pass them on nothing wrong with that
If you can afford it please help the people who are poor .Don't worry about holes in their clothes ...As long as they are clean and washed who gives a sheat . Averyone is trying to do the best they can .She seems to be a responsible mother ..Good luck to her ..
@@johncrichton4341 agree but when options are limited, work with what we have. As long as the clothes are clean and they fit, a little needle work will go a long way.
@@JMA4206 she is a good mum and doing her best. No shame to her for wanting the best for her kids either.
The cost of living crisis appears to be a global problem, although here in the UK it has been made worse by the increase in the prices of many goods. The prices of gas and even electric bills has increased drastically, I believe that the government can bring into play a policy that helps reduces inflation, but for some reason, I don't think they are concerned about how the common person would do in these strangely challenging times.
It’s crazy how expensive things have become here in the UK, electric bills are high and the prices of goods keeps increasing by the day and the PM doesn’t care.
I think it’s just corporate greed, and with the supposed election of a new PM the government doesn’t care.
I don’t think the war caused this current inflation, the government need a proper strategy on how to tackle this situation. They need to learn from Switzerland I think.
It’s sad.
This are challenging times, a lot of us now need second jobs to properly support our families.
Is this a joke? The BBC selects one person who has SEVEN kids on a planet that is literally burning because we have too many humans and another winner who is obese, vapes, says I cut and sold everything and buy my kids junk food (pause to check vape pipe twice) while her lawn -- which could serve as a veggie garden -- is filled with expensive toys, a trampoline, BBQ, etc. Why don't you interview people who are actually suffering.
Valid points.
Because it's easy and serves there political agenda...
Too many humans is Not the reason why the Earth is burning.
Corporate greed is why.
It's profitable to kill the planet than it's to protect it.
Billionaires pay corrupt politicians to legalize their company’s pollution & destruction.
@@veroniquevesta7516 Do a bit of research of the amount of people who have lived on this planet and how are alive today. Everybody is a carbon dioxide emitter of some description ... More people more carbon dioxide is emitted. There is a huge correlation with it. Just see how much 1 person emits when they fly over to New York and back from the UK. It's 1 cars worth for a year! And your telling me population has nothing to do with it. Do few hours research and your release that the earth is far too populated for it's resources.
@@timshippam3906 ruclips.net/video/UxdY81rEoMU/видео.html
Corporation are the biggest polluters of CO2 emissions per capita
While it’s clear things are super hard at the moment as others have pointed too having 7 children is purely selfish when you can’t feed the 6 you currently have!
especially since at least one of the kids is wearing Under Armour shirts LOL
Selfish to whom? Husband works.
@@allykhan8594 the kids! They can’t afford that many kids as is!
@@epicchris1985 but are they on benefits??
@@allykhan8594 yes they will get help like child support plus the money the husband makes but if they are struggling now another child won’t help things will it 😂 It’s not like we suddenly found out about the cost of living problems, we knew it was happening a good while. All I’m saying is adding more and more children won’t help them support them better.
It makes sense to plan your budget first, than make another bunch of kids, no? 🤦🏼♀️
First thing that came to my mind.
That would be pushing the boundaries of reality..
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Hello how are you doing?
She just wants her meat pounded
She has SIX children and is pregnant with her SEVENTH child. Ridiculous, and IRRESPONSIBLE.
What is her goal?
In a world of overpopulation, and more scarce resources in the middle of extreme climate change this woman and her husband's choice to have a large family is indefensible.
The world is not overpopulated that’s a myth.
Yet I'll bet you would support a party that would ban free contraceptives and sexual health classes?
She is breading a small army in order to fend off future threats
@@____________aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Her goal WAS to rinse the government for child tax credits and live a good life off that money. She became a serial mum because she probably has no education, and used her looks to bag a "sales manager", which means a football fan who works at an O2 branch somewhere
Maybe don’t have 6/7 children then?
No no that is the financially responsible thing to do. A little expensive to begin with sure but in 10-11 years you can rake that money in when you send them down the coal mine.
Corporations/Billionaires want 3 classes 1) Billionaires , 2) The working class that get taxed , and have to eat Processed food stuff , 3) The homeless that can just crawl off and die , until then they are cheep under the table labor .
Tital welfare spending u.k £450billion. Total tax revenue £750 billion. Tax 37%gdp. Total spending £1.05Trillion.
Very difficult to empathize with a woman who brought 7 kids to this world. 😶
Why? We have an ageing population and too many women are choosing not to have kids.
I can empathize with a Rabbit more easily
Giving birth to 7 children when parents cannot afford to feed them is a crime against humanity. This is the animal way. Humans are those that act responsibly.
However, even poor parents have a right to have at LEAST a child and whenever their living status is uncomfortable, the government should intervene to ease their situations.
Not sure about uk but here in Canada moms get baby bonuses. Some poor mums keep having kids so the payments will continue. It’s a vicious cycle.
Their religious beliefs have put them in this position
I hear you, but at the same time my grandfather had 11 siblings. Yes. 11. And they lived comfortably. Now people are struggling with 1 kid. Times really are different.
@@pr0fess0rbadass it depends if you want or expects, cars, iphones, holidays, designer clothes, 4k tv etc..
Thing Is she did say the last few months. She could afford it before but not now.
I think the lady with 6 kids wasn’t the best example to portray . Kids are nice , but it’s always wise to plan ahead and budget correctly .wisdom is important at the end of the day
They are future workers & taxpayers.
She should have been sterelized a long time ago
Strongly agreed
People don't think ahead, and six kids in this crowded world is a real crime, not that anyone deserves to be poor but T-rump and the GOP traitors here.
....and she is waiting for the 7th to come... :p
Well clearly the only solution to this problem is to have more children as fast as possible.
Roger that.
🙄 I thought having another kid would be provided for by God? What God (government of dole) is also skint and has been bled dry by the feckless?
@@Gaygamer561 No, her husband is providing for all of them on his salary. This was clearly stated in the interview. Finances were not an issue until the significant increase in inflation. Now she does worry b/c it has impacted their budget as it has with many right now.They are NOT on the dole or bleeding anyone dry.
@@kristinab1078 Yup! Let’s overpopulate and overpopulated world even further.
🤣🤣🤣
What a bad example to demonstrate financial hardship
I think my situation is tough then I watch these videos and it brings perspective back
As someone whos family has had to use foodbanks in the past I immediately threw my arms up at the air when they said how many kids they have. I'm sorry but what an absolute joke. If you are already struggling why have more children?! Analyse your situation and plan your family around that.
The other one that got me was the whole baby milk thing... Your body as a female produces the best product for your child so use it!
She actually said she could afford everything a few months ago. Its only now shes struggling so she'd already of been pregnant
@@timshippam3906 Not all women have enough milk
@@sophk8457 I understand that but I will put a good firm guess she is fully bottle feeding them.
We were not told shes on benefits! Perhaps her husband pays it all.
Saana, there is this thing called condoms, going on 7 kids, daaaaam, nowonder you guys are broke. I mean God bless you, but 7 kids, really.
Less is more
Why she keeps breeding if they can't afford another child?
Because she can't do anything else. She's obviously uneducated
Self replicating DNA
Its Manchester
They need players for the soccer team
Because her husband is ejaculating his sprem into her vigina. He's not wearing a condom.
She's a peaceful
IF YOU CANT AFFORD THEM DONT HAVE MORE

EXACTLY AND THESE KIDS SUFFER WORLDWIDE THERE IS SUCH A THING CALLED CONTRACEPTION
Watch the interview and perhaps...listen. Her husband is providing for all of them on his salary. This was clearly stated in the interview. Finances were not an issue until the significant increase in inflation. Now she does worry b/c it has impacted their budget as it has with many others right now.Their children appear well fed and well cared for and living in a clean environment.
muslims in 3rd world shytholes usually. unfortunately they come to the west n taxpayers money to raise them
I’m trying not to be judgemental here, but kids are expensive. 6-7 kids are going to be VERY expensive.
Exactly what the world needs , more people, 7 children ! ! that is totally irresponsible
If people were paid not to have children ,the world would be better off !
Children are expensive,instead of creating another life think about adoption,thousands of unwanted children need homes.
So long as I am not paying for them, I don't give a shit. Britain's problem, is Britain's problem.
If people stuck to having no more than 3 kids then the population would probably be fairly stable and those kids would have a better standard of living.
I ain't raising another man's child like a cuck lol 🤣 Biological children for me in the future
Actually, having less children in some countries does not bode well for their society. Check out what will be happening in Japan in the next few decades w/ the population decline. It's of great concern for many reasons. However, I agree that it's always good to take care of unwanted children.
Wait, she has how many kids?!?! 😳

For all those banging on about the obvious 7 kids. You fell into the trap as intended. Now get on with it and ignore the cost of living crisis like a good citizen.
No-one is” banging-on” about it! But let’s not ignore the elephant ( in this case 7!!!) in the room! Crises or no crises- can’t feed? DON’T BREED!
@@whyohwhy3407 That's the point though. 7 children does not represent the country and is probably less than half a percent of families. They want you focusing on the 7 children so people either focus on her and make judgements about her life choices (true or false this isn't the issue we should be talking about) or feel better about their situation because they have less children and are not on benefits. It's designed to steer people away from the real issue, that people are being robbed blind while we have a self obsessed narcissist government in charge.
@@leefoster8015 you are extremely right. They are trying to distract everyone from the main topic of inflation by showing a lady with 7 kids and another with a vape. Not every person who is struggling financially is irresponsible.
I am poor and on disability, and I am very much aware of the cost of living. SEVEN children?
There's no cost of living crisis 🙄England is one of the cheapest places to live, why do you think so many migrate to it. Government gives you money for your kids, food and to even buy a house. Stop complaining and be grateful
Here’s a tip for the lady with 7 kids, stop having children you can’t afford.
Her situation is similar to that of many women here in Latin America. Many Latino women, including many girls who are still in they teens, have many children in exchange for low support offered by the government. However when the children reach a certain age, they lose the aid and enter to the statistics of poor people.
This is NOT the situation with this woman and her family. Her husband is providing for all of them and is a full times sales manager. Prior to the significant increase in inflation, she stated that they were not worried about their finances. Now they are concerned b/c it is impacting their budget, just as it is with everyone else. This example does not apply to their family and children who are all well fed, cared for, and living in a clean environment.
3:40 It is much cheaper to buy and cook meals in bulk than to buy ready meals and fast food though???
7 kids GODDAMN!!!!!
After I heard SEVEN KIDS I zoned out from shock : /
I've seen alot of renters & homeowners getting a roommate to help with increase costs. Even renting out a garage for a basic living space to supplement your income is a win, especially as evictions are rising and cheap housing is hard to find. There are limitations to how many people can share a space when you live in a city, but people are adapting.
I remember in the 80s letting friends sleep on the sofa in my bed-sit (for free) when they came to the city to look for work and couldn't afford anywhere to stay. It was something we all did to help each other out. Is that what we are going back to? We were promised progress.
@No Thankyou briton*
Renting a garage out to someone to live in is despicable
@@PTSTEH20 yeah they should sleep on a park bench instead
Million ways to make money but poor people just make excuses 😕
The way they present this report is disgraceful. They really arent concerned about the 'cost of living' but rather creating a huge response by not choosing a more average family, It looks like they have got it ignore the real issue and get people slinging mud at each other.
Picking on individuals who are already floundering is missing he point, last year these people could survive on what they had, this year they can't what happens next year, remember if the prices rise high enough unless you are incredibly rich it will eventually hit you.
Reading these comments puts me in mind of people living higher up the hillside not caring and feeling smug as the flood water rises engulfing people below with nowhere to go while they feel safe and superior; that is until the water is flooding through their own door. By that time the ones you were mocking would already be submerged and now its your turn but the people higher up the mountain don't care about you so you are stuffed. The selfish I'm all right attitude will doom everyone if they can't work together on a solution.
True, but almost nobody can afford 7 kids even before this inflationary period. it's cruel because you can't give each kid everything they're going to need.
“the birth of her 7th baby”. I had to play that bit again as I thought I may have misheard.
Muslims have many kids to reach majority, it's called population jihad.
yeah me too
😂
🤣🤣🤣
i’m sorry but six kids with a seventh on the way is too many for anybody .. low-key put yourself in that position
you’re worried about clothes ?
- and not being able to have a few different outfits for them;
give up your ideals for fashion, buy them one pair of jeans, and 7 plain tees .. embrace minimalism and pull back on your ideals
i have sympathy in abundance, but to some degree there is always more that can be done
you can buy a shit ton of rice, and pasta, salt and pepper
200 grams of either is enough intake for one day and stupidly affordable
also make food from scratch, raw ingredients do cost less overall
either live like a minimalist, or like you’re a student - master both and you’ll be fine
And, you're perfect?

Can’t agree more. She could breastfeed baby #7 instead of worrying about £2 too
For a start off, with 7 kids the younger ones can wear hand me downs. Just need one new outfit each for summer and winter for best wear and that could be picked up in the sales/TKMAXX. Outside of that, time to scour the charity shops for clothes and toys. Find a brand new toy, package it as a Christmas/birthday present. Keep an eye out for sales for buying little gifts for family and teachers.
Amazing what you can pick up. One year I picked up the most beautiful cups and saucers for my son's teachers for £2 each and filled them with Lindt chocolates. Just last Saturday I picked up the most perfect matching cup saucer and plate in Royal Worcester for £4. Some charity shops even sell brand new items.
On the point of jeans. I know that they are expensive, but if you buy Levi jeans they have a lifetime guarantee, they can be bought from outlet stores at a huge discount and if they get ripped or torn or zip in them busts, Levis will repair them for FREE. Makes them good value if you are handing them down year after year.
Food can be more difficult, because kids need decent nutrition. But even then there are ways and means. Buy at the end of the day marked down goods and freeze as much as possible. Buy smoked salmon offcuts add to creamy pasta serve with boiled peas. I buy venison burgers at 4 for £2 and I use them to make meatball pasta.
i too have 6 siblings unfortunately
Why does the BBC choose to do an interview with a woman with 6 children (and who is pregnant)? Viewers may get the wrong impression of the whole situation many people in the UK are going through this year. John, Norway
I totally agree
A woman with seven children is kind of a extreme example.
I live in the Caribbean. A normal iceberg lettuce (not organic) has gone up (from an already expensive) £3 to £8. And that's just one example. It's insane. No more lettuce for us!
your problem is breeding before doing any calculations on how much cost you can take on with buffer room
I don't know where are you from but I am Iranian. I'm just 15 years old and my country has been under sanctions for almost 40 years. The situation is hard but we don't have any problem buying foods , fruits and vegetables. Because my parent knows that they can't afford having more than 2 children.

@Stay green, Stay in the woods, Stay safe.
That is a good decision, very good for heart and low inflammation and disease.
Don't worry. Klaus will have you eating insects soon.
Add ramens to your diet. Yummy and cheap.
@@bootburner4544 Yeah,apparently they have started to use crickets in food! Omg,wtf?
@@bloodmoon1956 Yep, in Australia they are now feeding cricket crisps/chips to school kids. Gotta start the indoctrination at a young age you know.
Seven kids? Good gosh, she looks so good.
If I had a wife that looked like her I'd have seven kids too lol
She definitely has great looks!
I only have 2 kids and find them expensive enough. I believe our household income is around what they call average (46k before deductions) but I definitely couldn’t afford to have additional kids!
U need some encouragement. Watch sullivan family to get it. 🤣
46k sounds higher than average even.
There ought to be a law mandating tubal ligation and vasectomy to couples when they already have two kids. The State should step in to curb irresponsible parenting.
Yup we have a house hold income of 75k but still stopped at 2 kids as was the sensible thing to do to allow for crisis's like this!
Yes kids are expensive. Glad to be childfree
What’s she trying to do. Populate the planet all by herself.
Thanks for the laugh😂
She’s at the Foodbank but has money for Vaping 🙄
Cheaper than tobacco. Give her a break
How do u know she bought the vape? That it was given to her
7 children are not normal..we have 1 and struggle..you're interviewing an usually very very large family..
You made that choice.
Im a carer for my disabled son, £4200 is just over 115% of my annual carers allowance and just over 100% of carers allowance for those on it. The majority of claimants for both ofter have to top up their rent too. I am also required by law to pay 50% of my £1300 council tax plus my water and sewage... theres just a few major things missing, food and clothing for a start.
What do you want me to do?
You shouldn't be paying so much council tax. If should be asking your council for help. I was paying full council tax then I found out as my sons carer I could get it reduced. Please speak to your council I now only pay £14 a month instead of £140
No spouse? No family help you? May the 1 God guide you. Peace!
If you're a religious man I'd pray. If you're not a religious man pick up a copy of the communist manifesto and get to work lol.
What do we want you to do? Well, getting a real job is probably a good idea
@@handsomesquidward151 I knew some ignorant idiot was going to suggest that. You do realise that to be a carer you have to commit 35 hours a week to caring for the person for only £67 a week.
I'm the sole carer to my disabled 5 year old who only goes to school 90 minutes a day, I don't have family to care for him he hasn't got a mum in his life and I can't afford over £1000 a month for childcare and even if I could they wouldn't take him because he needs specialist support.
The past 3+ years I've had my son on my own, in that time I've had 2 part time jobs during the pandemic, built a website with over 1000 unique products and from over 50 retailers I worked solidly for about 6 months on that and couldn't get funding in the end because of ccjs, I've been my mums representative in her divorce for the past year and a half, doing everything the other party spent £6000 for a solicitor to do so far. I was also volunteering for a local community group once or twice a week and up to the day I had my son full time in my care I worked full time in construction while I spent 22 months at court for custody. At one point I took a job as a cleaner at Tesco at 6am when I had my 6 month old son having to drop him off at 5.30am to go and do what ever work I could but my family who could care for him cant anymore.
I bet I've done more in the past 5 years than you have your entire life.
6 child 🍻 +1 coming
Nice family planning
I think its a lack of planning thats to blame
Seven children when the world is already overpopulated? Really?
Just dont pay the bills eat drink and to hell with the electric gas bill
Great advice from some idiot called Adam fernandez
maybe don't have 7 children then... an adult should know that raising children is expensive and having 7 of them is financially tough... does she expect the gov't to raise them?
A great life hack for Brits: just use the surplus NHS money you don't send to the EU :)
Lol. Morons thought that.
Ultimately, that number of children is personal choice, but seven soon to more children, is irresponsible.
Her house looked nice and she has a nice big TV. Don't think she's poor!
No, she's not poor. Her husband is providing for the family. She's just worried how inflation is impacting the family's financial budget.
No, she's just not happy because inflation is making her poor now. Life is all about planning. Hope for the best, plan for the worst.
Government needs to start offering incentives to couples to have more than 1 or 2 kids and build back up this countries population and ease the aging population problem. £200 extra a week for a 3rd kid, £400 for a 4th. Double the population of this country. More people of a working age earning money paying taxes helps to pay for state pension.
Am being serious.
What if you have less children. It would be cheaper lady!
Sorry, but if you're constantly having kids, you're NOT struggling!
Try closing your legs or the pill. The taxpayer will end up paying for these children. The lack of any responsibility for one’s problems is staggering. I’m a retired pensioner living on beans and cans of soup. And I worked for 52 years.
To all saying that 7 kids is not a good example, I Disagree partially, it is a matter of comparative quantitative method in terms of price rise and spending power, not only a qualitative categorical method.
I think it's absolutely fantastic that current day people have to learn to sacrifice and get thrifty - it's a long while since that's been called for and needs reintroducing. I did my own "sacrificing" and declined a rental increase, it's now been 7 months in a car and saved $11K. Now that's a bloody good feeling.
So you think it's a good thing people are having to sacrifice and choose between heat and and eat and you've saved 11k in 7 months but your sleeping in your car ? and you feel good about it you must be winding us up ??
@@tech9auto223
I have no heating, no electricity, no running water, - I sacrificed and as a consequence I now earn more than I need. Not winding you up, just realising that sacrificing can mean learning to live within your means.
@@joebloggs4362 I wasn't being cheeky Joe just wasn't sure if you were at the wind up suppose I might as well be sleeping in my car Im living like a troglodyte scared to put anything electric on I don't get paid until tomorrow and last couple of days have been tight seems when I run out of something I run out of everything at same time I'm dreading this winter as the windows I have are older than me and I'd need a bank loan to put storage heaters on I refuse to use them will it not be cold in your car Joe in winter or are you well prepared? good luck from Scotland Joe keep working and saving I don't doubt you'll have the last laugh what your doing is maybe a good idea I'm just not very responsible with money I'd probably sleep in my car and still be skint :-)
Stop dying your hair, stop breeding, stop buying accessories etc Get au pair and go to work. I paid £35,000 in tax last year but I still wear the underwears I wore when I was in primary school.
I bet there's plenty of white upper middle class 4x4 drivers just coming back from their summer holidays that'll soon be on news channels complaining that they can't afford to go on their Christmas holidays to America unless the government steps in...while there are real family's having to manage on no holidays, no new cars, no new etc etc etc.
Defunding the BBC would be a great way to help people save money.
You could just not watch TV and sell it if you're that desperate 🙄. Hardly an essential item.
@@vrclckd-zz3pv They want to help everybody save, and reduce the amount of money wasted by the government
They don't want to flog the TV.
@@nedson6503 not watching TV would also achieve that. Never met a billionaire with a TV because TV is for lazy fucks.
Deleting your youtube account would ease the costs of servers
How about you moronic British remove the taxes being used to fund the royal family’s extravagant lifestyle and seize all their assets?
its her own fault for having so many kids, no sympathy from me.
Really like this interviewer - talks to people on a level and gets v natural responses from them. Pieces like this often seem almost staged but this is authentic. Hoping for the best for those in the video and hope all of us get through the coming months OK.
Hello how are you doing?
Regardless of which way you vote. One has to confront the outcome, that change is inevitable. What we are doing in our society isn't sustainable. We don't just need change. We need a catyclismic overhaul of our society.
And "If we destroy the environment, we won't have a society"...per the late American cultural anthropologist Margaret Mead in the early/mid 20th century! Tell me about it! smdh
While the cost of living increase the government are spending over 2.5 billion pounds a year on housing illegal immigrants in hotels across the uk at the expense of the tax payer. This is illegal human trafficking made legal which helps transfer tax pounds into the pockets of the lose involved in human trafficking. Over the next year or so the bill for human trafficking will rise costing the uk tax payer closer to three billion pounds a year.
Quit having so many kids....control yourself.
7 children! My god!! No wonder they are broke.
Exactly, you would have thought that six would have been enough for anyone.
Sorry, but how many people could ever afford to have 6 kids and 1 on the way? You can't complain about having a hard time financially when you're making those types of decisions.
choose a 7 kids family as an example, typical BBC style.
I'm not feeling sorry for people on UC and having bunch of kids - just get the job and stop making babies! Show me those people who are working full time in decent jobs but stuck renting rooms in shared houses for a life. That's a real 'cost of living crisis'!
Having the seventh baby without compatibility of fostering them is really huge crime. If you can't survive with kids now, then to have next one is illegal again humanity, and even will lead to famine and drought.
Got to say thats the most stupid thing to say but what do you expect you are stupid.
No sympathy. They can’t manage with 6 children so decide to have another one. What’s wrong with them?
She’ll need to get a man that is willing to take care of her; and her children!
I couldn’t watch much , I was born in the fifties and often had to wear clothes over and over again, I noticed she can afford the essentials like a nose ring she should sleep with her ankles together it may help .
Well said Graham Jordan. And if that doesn’t work sterelize her although it’s a bit too late for that
what about her man, it takes 2
I've got nothing to eat at all 🥺🥺🥺
Sanna is not likely to be a ethnic british. Her having too many kids raises questions
My Granny was one of 9 kids
...aN ethnic British. whatever that is.
7 children when you are not able to afford it is grossly irresponsible.
