13 kids and wanting more

[Kazz]

On channel 4 tonight 9.00pm I am gong to watch with interest. My Dad is one of 15....but we are talking 70+ years ago since the youngest was born.

Interesting Kazz - my dad was one of 11. He was born in the 1920s.

Scary thought having that many children today. My mum was one of 8, and my dad one of 7!!

[Kazz]

Well its started on channel4.

[Kazz]

My Mom is one of 7 too but I think in the 20's 30's it was the norm, due to lack of birth control as such.

[Kazz]

However I find it fascinating wonder how nice it would be to be one of a large family.....................if chaotic

[alexgirl73]

Chaotic, definitely lol. I honestly don't think I could cope with it. I need quiet time.

When my mum and dad split my dad's wife had 3 kids and i have 2 sisters so on a weekend there was 6 kids n 8 all together plus 4 rotties and it was manic.
It was like feeding time at the zoo at tea. I could never do it xx

I am one of 7, and hubby one of 9!

I'm only catching the end of this documentary and the woman doesn't look very old to have had 13 kids - did they say how old she is, Kazz?
