If you have no business being in a house you really can't afford, I have no sympathy WHAT-SO-EVER when the bank takes it back. It's the people who cut back and cut back some more only to find they can't keep their homes. My heart goes out to them and anyone who makes sound financial decisions and is responsible with money, but falls on bad times.
Alex Pemberton and Susan Reboyras should be imprisoned.

I don't think they want your sympathy, they seem to be acknowledging that they'll eventually be evicted. And what exactly would you imprison them for besides living their life in a way you disapprove of?'
ETA: And you have the choice not to be a "sucker." But I suspect you find making your payments both possible and preferable to eviction.
