But I do have to share--my mother was one of 19 children. (She's now 71.) I don't think they have birth control in that era... I can’t imagine that many children or being pregnant that many times!

Michelle and Jim-Bob. They have a show on cable - TLC, maybe? Or Discovery Health - one of them. I've seen it a couple of times. It's... interesting. Each of the younger kids has an older sibling as their "buddy" to help them out with stuff and basically take care of them. They seem happy and support themselves & their family w/o help, so more power to them, but it certainly isn't the size family I'd want. <br/><br/>Personally, I'm waiting for one of the older kids to break free and have some "Amish in the City" style fun. You know at least one of those girls has got to be thinking something is a little weird about their mom popping out so many kids. Also, why do the boys get to wear (somewhat) normal clothes and the girls are all dressed/have hair like they're on Little House on the Prairie? I can't wait for them to rebel - now that will be a show worth watching! Ahh yes, the Duggars. Michelle and Jim-Bob. They have a show on cable – TLC, maybe? Or Discovery Health – one of them.

Well, my Mom has 6 living children. I was 1o when one of my brothers was born...15 when the other was born. I was pissed. I didn't want to take care of another baby. So I made it clear to her and she never asked me to do anything for the youngest. BUT that is why I have a small family, hubs wanted to stop at 1! Oh my GAWD. Well, my Mom has 6 living children.

WHY DOES BLOGGER insist we type out these ridiculous word verifications that are so LONG and COMPLICATED?

So hard to read, so long, so complex.<br/><br/>Sorry. Just had to add that. Not your fault, of course! One more comment.

Come on, Blogger. It’s bordering on a deterrent for me now. So hard to read, so long, so complex.

Sorry. Just had to add that. Not your fault, of course!
