That's where the cruelty lies.
Lifelong benefits layabouts get no sympathy, but unfortunately there's no flexibility in this new system. Even then, why should children of these people be punished for their poor life choices? Ideally some sort of system where only food and school clothes can be bought from the extra child benefits should be implemented but the administration of this would be very expensive so the government is happy to just do it as they do now.
