Well, as long as they are paying for them themselves, more power to them. I'm still of firm belief though that before "Global Warming/Climate change" kills any of us, our population will will reach proportions of unsustainablility. Basically, I think we'll run out of food and energy long before the climate takes it from us. So, personally, I see no reason to do anything but replace myself on this earth.
Amen brother, and I must say that practice makes perfect....:biggrin:
At least that's what I tell my wife.
Careful saying that out loud, people will rip you for that. I agree with you btw.
I agree that it's a tad irresponsible to have so many children, overpopulation is going to be a big problem in the future.
People talk about that and it may be true, but someone might want to talk to certain countries in the Eastern part of the world then. India's population is exploding compared to most places.
Do I think this family is out of touch=Yes
Do I think they should have a ton of kids=As long as they pay for them it's their choice
The one thing I will say is that people like the McCaughey septuplets make me want to puke. We kept hearing that this was gods will. No gods will didn't put fertility drugs in your pie hole. Also, you're little experiment caused your kids to have life long illnesses. I was also pissed that they used the kids to get all kinds of free things.
I mean they got a free college education for all the kids, a free van, a free 5,500 sqft house
I'm fine with people having as many kids as they want as long as they support them without handouts.

Another thing that irritated me about the Macaughey's was the dad worried about supporting them, but didn't want to have to drive to Des Moines to work. They live in Carlisle for crips sakes, that's like a 20 minute drive to downtown. Besides, they ended up selling that house 2 years after they moved in.
I feel very strongly about this. I think it's completely irresponsible of them to have 18 kids. If you want to have a million kids, fine, go right ahead. But why don't you have 8-10 of your own and adopt another 8-10??? There are so many children out there in need of a good family and you feel the need to boost your ego by having enough kids for two full baseball squads...
How long do you think it takes her to pop one of them out now? I bet she could beat a bag of microwave popcorn.
I had the pleasure of working for the Register during that time. Just glad I didn't get suckered into babysitting.
My problem with the Duggars is there is no way that each of the kids can get the individual attention they need from their parents. They spend most of their lives being raised by the older siblings... Not to mention their sheltered lifestyle and narrow world view...
My wife had our 4th in 22 minutes from the time they broke her water, so I would guess her baby probably tapped her on the shoulder and said, "hey I'm out!"
