It was Channel 4, who let's face it, aren't renowned for their positive editing in this type of documentary.

I didn't see it Gayle but the friend of mine who did was quite horrified by it and I think it was more than just moving a few clothes. Mine grumble about having to do that, or their turn for the washing up. Who cared for the babies in this family though and changed nappies? They were not changed all day when the older kids were at school I was told one child fell and hurt his (?) lip but the mother didn't respond to the crying until prompted to do so by the camera crew. What mother doesn't react when a child cried in pain?

Anyway I'm not the only one in this thread who felt that the parents reasons for having children were selfish and that they don't behave like people who deserve to have children. There are at least 3 others of the same opinion.
