I think it’s wonderful! Be fruitful and multiply. My husband and I are adopting because we can’t have children. If I could have 18 children, believe me I would. God bless you for having each and every one of them. Like a previous posted noted, at least you had your children and didn’t have any abortions. Praise be to God!!
I feel the mother with 18 kids are fruitful. She didn’t have an abortion like so many others. My grandfather once told me it was easier to feed 18 children them 2 children. He had 18 sibling and it wasn’t any food wasted, the meal cooked was eaten the same day and it was food left to throw away like the rest of the does every day. All the negative response’s from others need to examine their waste in food on daily basis and she what child my need a meal instead of worrying about the taxpayers because if she had 1 child they still would pay the same in taxes. So tell them to get a life and share their food with the homeless and not the trash can….bj
“With that many kids, and one more on the way, it’s impossible for a family not to worry about debt, unless of course the family is financially set for life due to what I said earlier about dad playing pro sports or hitting the lottery.“
Well, if dad makes good money, they get that huge dependent-child deduction (at least 16 of these kids are still dependents, right?) they wont rely in cash advance. And since the oldest boy has his first one coming along when he’s 21, I suspect they aren’t worrying about trying to save up for college for these kids. Send them all to public school, or maybe home school them, so there’s no school tuition to worry about. Put the older kids to work in the family business, and have them bring their income home to give to the folks until the kids actually marry and start their own families. They may very well be debt-free. But they are still being subsidized by taxpayers, at least to the extent they are getting those income tax deductions.
