I notice how her "mental health" is now being mentioned in virtually every article

I think you're stereotyping a lot here. Yes I'm sure there are some people who have children in part for the benefits they might get. She was married to her eldest 3 children's father, living in a family unit and so much as we know he's a working man - so we could assume she wasn't living on social security/benefits then.At 34 she is not a "young" mother. I agree with you, and she had enough children so she obviously knew what she was doing. I also agree that living off Social Security was her only motivation, not love for her children. I think she was a brutal, calculating, self centered and violent person who was only interested in living off Social Security, her children's welfare was not her concern. We can see that in the newspaper articles. Unfortunately there are a lot of other people having children for the same reason and there is no way of stopping them. There are other people who could have given the poor child a loving home. None of us can bear to think of his physical suffering and also his knowing his mother did not love him and there was no help for him. The poor child.
I must admit, I did come to the conclusion that she kept the children for the benefits for a number of reasons - she had already had them taken into care on 2 occasions after neglecting them to go out partying on a number of occasions. She was at parties where drugs were involved, whilst her children were left home alone in filthy conditions. A mother who loves and wants her children, does not put her need to party above her childrens' safety in my opinion.
Reports also said that the children lived in very dirty conditions with filthy matresses instead of beds. Look at every photo of her on social media (and there are lots) - do you ever see her looking anything less than immaculate? No. She is always covered in make up, with hair done, latest fashions and nice jewellery ....whilst her children were living in dirty conditions, unfed as she went out for nights, if not entire weekends. Does that sound like someone who wants her children?
Finally, she had previously put her twins up for adoption, but changed her mind at the last minute - despite googling questions about her lack of love for her son and her aggression towards him. What did she gain from keeping a child she didn't even like at home? Simple, she gained lots of money to pay for her partying lifestyle.
Just my opinion. I haven't been a mother in receipt of benefits - but I have been a single working mother of 5 children - a much more difficult situation as far as I am concerned. At the time, my children were similar ages to hers and I used to juggle nursery, a child minder and school/after school clubs whilst I went out and earned the money to pay for them. I didn't have a wealthy mother to help out, neither did I receive any money from the father of my children. So, I can't find any excuses or sympathy for her. She had it easy as far as I am concerned. Her children were in school or nursery, leaving plenty of time for her to do what she wanted, whilst her rent and bills were paid for her by everyone else.
Regardless of whether she wanted the children when they were conceived, I don't believe she wanted them at the time Mikaeel was killed. They certainly weren't as wanted as the partying life style was.
This case haunts me - thinking of him feeling ill and being sick and being battered at the same time, then left in agony for hours, before being beaten again and left for dead just breaks my heart. I can't even wish for her safety inside prison. It might be wrong, but I hope the guards are selectively deaf and blind whenever anyone feels like showing her how it feel to be beaten up. Sorry mods if I've gone to far.

Let me make myself clear - I am in NO way defending her or ANYTHING she did in ANY way.
But I disagree ... I think she had her children because she loved their father's and wanted them and wanted it to work...
Have you ever been a mother in receipt of benefits/social security?
Can anyone in Scotland say if there's likely to be a Serious Case Review as their would be in England? (I believe children's services are devolved?)
Clearly a selfish woman, couldn't have their dad so the twins no use to her,
