Mum-of-6 can't afford to feed family due to 'punishing' cost of school uniforms

A mum-of-six has lifted the lid on the high cost of school uniforms - saying she's had to cut back on buying food to pay for clothes.

Yep. They look really undernourished

Not sure I believe her that she's having trouble feeding those kids. Something about them suggests they are quite well fed.

27 years old. Six kids. I’m guessing she don’t work so all paid for by us taxpayers.

My advice is to get to the food before the two individuals either end of this photo do.

Look well fed in the pic plus got the money for hair dye. Yh pull the other one

Yeah right! It looks like some of the people in that pic are getting more than sufficient calories.

Who the fuck knocked that up more than once?

At roughly £5 per cheap dye is £25 they could of spent in iceland on multi packs of various. If they all have phones deduct that from top-ups or contracts. Kids prob have xbox/ps4 gold. I think theres cash to be freed up.

With all the families genuinely struggling you had to go an interview this one Don't pretend you didn't know what you were doing 😒

Obviously, the fathers are all far too busy out at work to appear in this story.

Yeah, they really look like they’re wasting away.

Should of bought a tv & closed her legs.😂😂😂 Tv would of been cheaper.

Makes the Dingles look like the Kardashian’s

Looks like she feeds herself though. 🤔

Products of the feminist welfare state.

A few heffers here, you wonder why she thought she should have 6 kids and somebody else should pay for it. How much benefit does she receive per week and what other sources of income does she have? How many mobile phone contracts here?

Eat one of the hippos on your couch.

27 year old with 6 kids, some of whom are of secondary school age? Please could someone explain contraception to the poor woman. Plus if she can’t afford health food how does she afford hair dye?

She should have thought of that before she had a ridiculous,why should the tax payer subsidise idiots like this!

How about stop having kids.

Many towns now have uniform recycling schemes. She just needs to ask, someone will point her in the right direction.

If you cannot afford 6 children, why have them? Contraception clearly wasn’t an “essential”.

They look like they are just out of Belsen poor buggers

Half of them could very much do with less food anyway.

Can you clarify, because your report doesn't, what she does for a living, and what their father(s) do for a living? Oh, and who pays for their hair dye?

Oh well in that case I'm definitely voting Labour

😏

Did she explain why she had 6 kids and why she wants me to pay to bring them up?

Thank goodness. The obese ones might be able to get their weight under control.

🤣🤣🤣 'Can't afford to feed family', well played, you have sense of humor heavily laced with irony

Positively malnourished

The mothers the one on the right? 😁

Would you spend money on hair colour if You couldn’t afford food?

The replies just write themselves

Yeah right, cos they all look malnourished...NOT!

Nobody asked her to have 6 kids. Still can afford the hair dye though so that’s ok 🙄

Nourishment doesn’t seem a problem but given you have 6 of them, you could always eat your least favourite child. Don’t need to buy a uniform then

Cutting down on essentials like hair dye and baccy.

She has six kids of different ages. Has she never heard of hand me downs. You dont have to have brand new stuff for every kid. If one of them has grown out of something but it fits another kid give that to them. Not rocket science.

There are 9 people in that photo of a mum with her 6 kids. Who are the other two? They look well fed. They could give her tips.

kuku27 Lessons-Have less kids. Schools must charge reasonable tuition fees

Don't they have grants to help?, I know some in my area do, and it helps them. Uniforms are much to much expensive, help is needed for some on low incomes.

They look well fed to me

Shouldn't have had kids then ... That's common sense ... Maybe should have worn a condom!!!

The face of brutal and savage Tory austerity.

Well someone is, clearly! 😳

Think of their carbon footprint 😲

If she cannot afford to feed those children then all one can conclude is that for some considerable time she has been inflating them by the use of a bicycle pump.

'and 6 dads fer me kids' 😂

Stop having kids if you can't afford it!

Very difficult to have sympathy for her when she's chosen to contribute so heavily towards overpopulation and humans overeating the world's resources

Pack of condoms, are very cheap🙄🙄

CasperBryson maybe it’s time to say goodbye to school uniforms, if pupils need to be identified then just a badge should suffice.

That bloody milkman

Should have kept her legs shut.

Fuckin hell the un couldn't afford to feed these, be cheaper buying them gastric belts😂😂

But she can afford hair dye?

Asda, Aldi, uniforms are cheap enough!

1. Stop breeding if you can’t afford them. 2. None of them look short of nourishment. Consider diverting some money from your grocery bill. 3. Don’t spend money on hair dye. 4. Don’t expect the rest of us to pay for your kids. 5. Kids’ school clothes are not expensive.

Bullshit

Why have six children if you can’t financially support them? Oh that’s right, the tax payer will pick up the tab. Also, some of those kids are incredibly overweight.

Interesting gene pool.

There are enough calories in that room to power a small town for a week.

They haven’t missed a meal in their lives.

Iromg another starving family

They don't look like they've had to skip too many meals! Also maybe she should have thought about the cost of raising children before having so many - or is this as a result of old UKLabour policies that the more kids you had the more benefits you could claim?

Which is the ‘mum’?

fuzzle7777 They look starved.....

There's 9 people in that pic. And at least 3 of them are overweight so hard to believe they're not being fed. 27 years old, 6 kids! Keep your legs closed!

Cut back on hair dye.

Buying healthy food 😂🥴

Bullshit uniforms are not that bloody expensive Perhaps cut out the McDonald's

I wonder how many new smart phones the families got

emaciated they are.😢😢😢

Same father it is a possibility

This family obviously needs education in birth control or misery and poverty is on the horizon for the whole family. Sometimes the truth hurts but for her to ignore the evidence is just foolish. Children are a blessing but having more than you can afford is irresponsible.

“We’ve never had a holiday abroad, we’ve never been out the country' Stump up taxpayers, she wants a foreign holiday

Someone feed them, they haven't eaten in seconds!!

You know I didn’t have 6 kids because I couldn’t afford it

Can’t afford to feed her kids? I think mums a lying bastard. 🤣

Is she spendin all the money on hair dye?

6 kids at the age of 27? What kind of bike is she?

This is sad child obesity is a real problem for the U.K.

They look well nourished in the picture.

There's nine of them in this picture?

'Hair dye or food?' 'HAIR DYE!!!'

This has to be a fake report,she’s 27 & eldest is 17! Someone can’t do maths Agree uniforms can be expensive but you can do it cheaper...when mine were younger I brought the school badge & sewed it onto jumpers etc, halfed the cost. & buy all year as well,don’t wait for August

Keeps having kids though 😩

State of them.

What a load of bollocks!

If she stop dying there hair and that would help with the cost and simple complin to your mp that the school is ripping people off or buy normal trousers in the colour the school required and tell them to stuff their prices

They seem to prioritise fancy hair cuts and hair dye My mam cut mine washed in ordinary soap. Then she could afford school clothes.

Daily Sport Mirror do social services know the kids are starving

I see that “cutting out essentials” doesn’t extend to dying everybody’s hair all the colours of the rainbow.

They all look pretty well fed to me

Where is the father's maybe not have kids you can't afford I've not had a holiday for over 15 years it's life

Can't feed family? er, right. No pride.

All of them look like generic YouTubers

Well, if you can't feed them don't make them don't expect the government to do it.

I suppose keeping her legs together wasn't an option...

Surely you take this into account before you have 6 children! I sadly stopped at 3 for this very reason

She should have considered that before having so many children. 🤷‍♀️

Ever heard of 'op shops'.

Love the poor me expression

Condoms are relatively cheap, though.

With all that child benefit and tax credits?! Really

Less kids maybe?

Don’t like *

Did Mr like the headline but yes Sch uniforms are disgusting. I’ve just had to pay £48 each blazer. £25 jumper and £150 pe kit. All Sch logo from their shop and all Nike!!!!!!! Disgusting

At least half of them should be working early mornings and saturday jobs and funding themselves! This country has gone too soft, in my day you either worked or went to school in your underpants.
