I've seen a couple of the shows they did.  Interesting, but totally nuts!

I just cannot imagine having that many kids.  She is on her way to having a football team!!

You have to admire them though, they have no debt and they built their house.  However, the clothes they wear and how the girls wear their hair looks creepy to me.

I can't believe she wants another one, kinda selfish to me!

For a lot of people before birth control a BIG family was normal.  One woman here had 21 children (and they all lived)  She lived to be in her 80's or 90's. Some of her children still live here.  Can you imagine 21 kids.   :banghead;  Guess they had nothing else to do for recreation!!  :bandance;

I don't understand why having so many kids is considered selfish. If they can afford them, and everyone is happy and cared for whats wrong with a huge family?
