each one of the older kids has a younger kid that is their "buddy". They are responsible to get them ready in the morning, make sure they are feed, and take care of them. Ummmmm...shouldnt that be a moms responsiblilty?? not an older brother or sister??
Great that you want to have a whole clan of kids BUT you should take care of them...as parents should!



This is what I find off about them. I think if the parents could take care of them (with minimal help from the siblings) then I would see no problem with it.

The few episodes I watched I never once saw either parent hold the younger "babies", except for the father held the daughter(around 2 years old) for a few minutes in a waiting room.

exactly! I never see any sho of love...like a hug of a kiss. I actually looked at their website and one of the daughters has a baby carrier for her to carry the babies! Chat Icon Chat Icon guess the mom is just the incubator for the kids....Chat Icon

I agree with Kara. I may not agree or understand their lifestyle but they seem happy and the kids seem well fed,clothed and adjusted. I can think of worse ways to live.



I agree.
