lol, and I thought being on my 5th pregnancy was a lot. I wish her a happy and healthy 9 and beyond....

I know that I'm going to get screamed at for this but here goes...


I don't completely agree with what they are doing. I see that the older children take care of the younger ones. That the kids do a lot of chores when they should be out playing, acting like little kids. That's my opinion, I'm not bad mouthing them for living how they want to, I'm just saying that I don't agree with it. I feel sorry for the kids, they don't get individual attention from their parents.


Please don't yell at me, I'm voicing my opinion.

I agree with you. She deliberately weans around 6-8 months so she can get pregnant again (she has said this on one of her specials). Then the baby is assigned to an older "buddy."

Oh well, that family is another whole can o' worms..

I can't help but wonder if the media spectacle is now fueling that.

I wish she'd breastfeed longer though. It might have spaced the kiddos and also given them some more mom time when they're little.

I am impressed with their house. DH and I considered getting one of those steel kit homes.

I saw the announcement. To each their own. I liked watching the oldest son's face. He was surprised.

I wonder if he every gets to leave the house and go off on his own. See the world.

I was wondering if someone was gonna post this--I almost did. She'd be in our DDC if she were on MDC
