Have you ever heard of the “crabs in a bucket” mentality? Legend has it, if you put several crabs in a bucket, not one of them will manage to climb out of it because they will be pulled down by the other crabs trying to escape. The crabs in a bucket mentality is a metaphor for a situation in which poor people pull down other poor people and expect them to live through the same amount of poverty and hardship they did.. just because. It’s jealousy.

A mother of 8 is not giving a very good name to the honorable, not as respected as it used to be role of being a mother. Our society is really lacking an appreciation of family, and families formerly consisted of a lot of kids back in the day, but not anymore. The infertility rate of young people across the world is falling dramatically, and in the US not enough people are having kids to even replace the dying population, but people still have hate to vent on mothers who get money from the taxpayers.

So the story of a woman from England named Marie Buchan is irritating the people who fall for the crabs in a bucket mentality. She said something dumb however, and it made viral headlines. She said she was “too pretty” to work.

While some people might cringe at what she is saying, she isn’t some lazy woman who has never tried to work a job. For a certain period of time, she worked part-time as a personal support worker. In several interviews on television (not a good idea if you don’t want to be ridiculed for being a mother), she said she hated this job. People found her attitude unsettling and jealous people “resented the fact that she only worked 16 hours per week in order to be able to continue collecting welfare benefits,” according to Boredom Therapy.
