What difference will scrapping the two-child limit make to children's lives?
Shauna says she'll be able to buy her children a new mattress.
Shauna says she'll be able to buy her children a new mattress.
![Quote from Shauna, who is married with three children: '[Scrapping the two-child limit] will make a big difference because we’ve had to incur debts. Hopefully it will mean I can cover the last bills that come in each month instead of being in the red. I could buy a new mattress for two of my children. They can feel the springs on the mattresses they’ve got that they’ve had for many years.'](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:skdzopkfuh4iahjcww2tnupb/bafkreia4cxkaetng36voctb3opo7wv6sdozyag5g3mwh6htzhqqpc3ftim@jpeg)
