As long as they are able to feed, care for, and make certain their children are educated and safe, I don't think its anyone's business how many children they decide to have. We need toworry more about the families with 2 or 3 children that are being abused or neglected.

The Duggars should look into some kind of sterilization, such as a vasectomy or a hysterectomy. 18 kids is too many and they are contributing to the overpopulation of this planet.
I don't understand why many "fundie Christians" feel the need to have 293847983748923749873 kids to please "God". I think 2 or 3 is enough. The parents will be old enough to be in a nursing home by time time the youngest child turns 18.

![]() More kids are killed by abusive parents (about 1,100 a year) than by dogs! As long as they're well taken care for, fine by me. |

It is her life and her decision. As long as the taxpayers are not footing the bill. I just hope these kids are truly happy as they are portrayed to be. I am not sure if all really enjoy wearing these kinds of clothes ..there has to be some different personalities among them.

![]() There are women that do enjoy the attention that pregnancy gives them but this is little excessive, don't you think? ![]() Secondly, I think its sad for the kids that they don't have unlimited time with both of their parents as it was reported that the 17 kids have to have an appointment with their parents.... |

Turned out that he had brain tumor. It's kinda like that crazy lady who collected like over 200 pets in her home where the feces on the floor was as deep as your knee. Tavares said Barletta fits the description of an animal hoarder, which is described in an online psychiatry article as a person who is in a state of denial that prevents him or her from seeing filth or understanding that animals are sick, dying or dead. "They often see themselves as the Mother Teresas of the animal world." Some hoarders show signs of dementia. In others, hoarding seems linked to obsessive compulsive disorder, in which people find themselves endlessly repeating patterns such as collecting the same inanimate objects, over and over. Most of those who are considered hoarders, however, share two key traits: extreme difficulty letting go of their animals and an inability to recognize the creatures' declining health. Those traits even apply to hoarders who are extremely bright, articulate people, researchers say. So maybe same thing with the Duggar Parents??? even though kids are well-taken for (they were funded by government, private organizations, and community)

Now let's figure out what the heck that means. 2 billion? but we're at 6 billions now. Now about 2 billions are in MDCs (More-Developed Country aka Rich Country) and rest is LDCs (Poor country). Obviously, the distribution of resources is unfair. Most of it goes toward to MDCs which is why we're (USA) the #1 consumer of oil in the world. so... if the world population is MDC, Earth can support only 2 billion. If we are all LDCs, maximum capacity will be 60 billion. Interesting, huh??? but.... useless thing to know. i like to know useless stuff. I wish Americans can live conservatively like Europeans and Asians especially Japanese - using less resources per person. So what you're thinking is "over-crowding" but I don't think they are over-crowding their little community lol |

There are many families with 2 professional parents whose 1 or 2 children are in school and daycare for 18 or more hours a day. Their contact with their parents is limited as well. Since these kids are homeschooled, I'd say they have more contact with at least one parent than many children in smaller families. I know, as a single working mother with only one child, I had to set aside specific time for spending quality time with my own son. |
