Just curious how large of a family you have. I have 2 sisters, born on the same day 12 years apart. The farmer I work for was telling me about 4 families that lived on a section near him jn the 70's. One family had 12 kids, one with 10, another with 10 and one with 2. 34 kids on one section of ground, good Catholics I would say.

Forever in debt to my Father who introduced me to trapping.
May I be half the man he was.

I have a younger sister and brother. I think 2 or 3 kids is plenty nowadays. My sister has 3 kids and she has her hands full. Nothing wrong with a big family though.

I only have half siblings. My father has 4 other kids with 2 different women, only one of which I've met, and my mother has a girl with another man, who I grew up with. So 5 half-siblings.

Dad couldn't stay home. Mom put him out right after I was born. Tried to come back, sister got conceived but was out before she was born. So...only me and my sister thank goodness. Even with only two kids I'm amazed at how hard my mother worked and raised us.

Good for your mom. My mom also raised us 3 kids all alone with no child support. It wasn't enforced in those days. We all grew into productive citizens with no police records. Lol

Two younger sisters

I talked to a man that was 1 of 33.... his Grandmother also had 32. He was in his 80s. But said he only had 16 kids.

Said he couldn't keep up!

Had 4 siblings 3 brothers and a sister 2 of my brothers are gone and don’t know about my sister, haven’t seen or heard from her since my dad died in 76 she married into money and never looked back.

When I was a kid we had the smallest family among our relatives most of who had 7 or more kids and in up to my aunt who had 13

My ma came from a family of 14, 9 brothers and 5 sisters she lost 7 brothers to WW2, my dad came from a family of 7 brothers and lost 4 in the war
