18 is just not natural

[nadinbrzezinski]

1. It was at one point

but the mortality rate was also horrendous, so it made some sense

In this world of ours, it just doesn't

[47of74]

2. My great-great-grandparents had 13 children.

This was in the latter part of the 19th century, where you could usually figure on at least one dying before reaching adulthood. However all of their children made it to adulthood.

3. RFK and Ethel had 11

And he died young

4. That means this women has spent

13.5 years pregnant, yikes. I will admit when I read the title on the Lastest page I was thinking "please let MA Dugger be his dog please" but some just gots to breed I guess

[Fearless]

6. I got one for you...

When I first read the title I thought it said "MA Dugger had her 18th bday". I figured MA Dugger was a DUer! Wow, is my face red.

10. Thats great n/t

[HillbillyBob]

5. It is irresponsible to have that many kids these days

My great grand parents had 15, 12 that lived to adult hood and a big farm to work.

8. No farm, but these kids have

a big ol' reality show to fill with personalities. Such a great reason for Ma to keep birthin' those babies.

7. Well.... maybe for this family it really IS a clown car.

[BrklynLiberal]

9. It would sure seem so..

[TripleKatPad]

11. Just cuz you can doesn't mean you should

JMHO

[Feron]

12. Her uterus is going to crawl out in protest. n/t

[Hardrada]

13. My mother had twelve. Two deceased. I am the eldest.

Didn't seem to be too big a deal for her. Of course that was quite awhile ago and way before overpopulation was an issue.
