MORE HARD LUCK

Charlene Bharatt of the Newsday, you've written another one of those "I'm a young mother with three young children to feed and I have no job and my babies' daddy died and I need everyone to pitch in and help me". SIGH! Enough already!
The reason these people keep crawling out of the woodwork is that they see other people's hard-luck stories (genuine or otherwise) being highlighted in the media and they probably tell themselves 'well I can get a house and free everything too if they could only get a shot of me with the kids and have some pity on us.'
Once again, we want to know if you asked her if she did not hear about birth control when she was 17 (when she had her first child), and whether or not she had been to the FPA since then, along with Social Services to tell them about her plight.
What about looking for a job?

And you wrote this statement: "Sookdeo’s children, four-year-old Suzanne, three-year-old Rohan and one-year-old Raj, have not as yet gotten their new electronic birth certificates. Sookdeo said that this was the reason why Suzanne and Raj have not been registered to attend school."
So she is saying that it's taken four years to get the eldest child's electronic birth certificate? Did you call the Legal Affairs Department to find out when she first applied and what's the hold up?
And is three year old Rohan attending school?
Why do you leave your readers with so many unanswered questions??
