Have you ever heard of the Duggar family?
Well apparently, they are expecting their 18th child. 18th.
They were on the today show earlier and announced it.
abit crazy, but they seem to be a well rounded family and so no complaints from me
Let me be the one you call
If you jump i'll break your fall
Lift you up and fly away with you into the night
If you need to fall apart
I can mend a broken heart
If you need to crash then crash and burn YOU'RE NOT ALONE
My friend's mum has 15 children. I think it's just too many. How can you possibly hope to give each child the love and attention they need when you've got that many to see to. Oh my god, imagine the washing.
18's not bad, but my great-grandfather was one of 24 children
But I suppose back in 'those days' circumstances were very different.
I don't really have a problem with someone having that many children, if it's what they want and the children are well cared for, there's not really an issue.
I can't be bothered clicking the link, and I've never heard of them.
But I don't see the problem, really.
As long as the parents can support them all and take care of them then fine, it's not really anyone else's business.
all the kids have names beginning with 'J' too .....
weird
although if they're supporting their own family then i see no harm in it, so long as she is not simply doing it to stay on benefits etc as many mothers are
but oh well
Damn. I'd be shitting myself about giving birth once, but eighteen times?
I wouldn't want to be her X_X
EDIT: Annabelle, twenty five?? Bloody hell! Even back when larger families of, like, ten and upwards was considered the norm, I'd have thought that twenty five would still be pushing it O__O;;

Reason: wanted to add summat
When heard about the children all having names beginning with J the first think I though was when a letter comes saying to Mr (or Miss) J Duggar how are they gonna know who's it is? Kinda leads to problems with privacy
Where do they get money from? I hope it isn't all benefits.
But blimey the parents must have amazing patients! I'd be pulling hair out!
I want to kiss the bottom of the ocean before I burst through its surface into the sunlight, otherwise I will always be wondering about what was left unseen at the bottom
i'm tired of chasing my dreams. i'm just gonna ask where they're going, and hook up with them later.
