Kids probably are there just to extort the baby daddies for money tbh. Child support doesn’t count as income for the parent, at least in my country. You can get child support from multiple men and then continue to receive disability benefits for your migraine, end up with more than minimum wage and all you need to do is find the next guy, because he’ll help raise the kids while you sit around doing nothing, and eventually he’ll have to pay you child support too.
This type of woman is like 0.1% of the general populace though, maybe less. I was baby daddy #2, but we cooperated to get our kids back from the abuser and now she actually has held a job for a whole 2 and a half weeks, which nobody thought possible.
When I was still with her, she was burning through 3-4x national median pay per month and we literally didn’t have food money halfway through the month.
From context I’m guessing it is a single mother who lives off social security and doesn’t go to work.
I have heard the pejorative ‘Welfare Queen’ used to describe this.
There will always be people that abuse benefits. There are also many people who cannot go to work and are doing their best to hold things together.
I wouldn’t be entirely opposed to that if it meant the kids got the love and care they needed.
