How is it selfish? Did I miss the part of the article where the kids were malnourished or something?

imo, no family should have that many kids - the ecological footprint this family has created is astonishing. this planet does not need people breeding like that. the us eventually will have a population problem itself and this doesn't help. it's also taxing on the government.
can you fix my steam id |

I have no problem with it, but I do in a way. lol.. I have no problem if people have that many kids, and can support and take care of them. BUT, why? Wtf is the point jesus. I knew kids from a mormon family when I was going through school, and they were annoying and shit and I wish they were taking out back and shot. Lol. They just loved telling everyone they were mormon, more power to someone who's proud of their religion but come on lol.

There's an overpopulation problem on this planet. They don't help any.

I think they make it fairly clear that it is their believe that God gave them these children, which is why he is important to them and their family. You may not share that belief, but the children are obviously well cared for, I see no problem.
I also do not think that each family should have a limit on children because of their "footprint" on the globe. I'd rather one family produce 20 intelligent, kind, mature individuals then 20 families each produce one abused drug addicted idiot. I think it goes to can the family absorb another child and raise it properly, if the answer is yes, then by all means go for it. Each of their other children is obviously congnescent of the family unit, helps out, and contributes. That's a great family model, it'd be nice if all families worked like that. Scuzzy

Are you inferring that they they see no coorelation between no birth control and number of babies popping out? Maybe a googlephyte can research that and find their actual stance. If they indeed think every little bundle of joy is given to them by god and that they have no say in that, its kinda sad.
I disagree with your opinion on the footprint issue - i think its a huge deal, enviornmentally, economically, and socially. clearly this mother needs some class limits on her worked over vagina. |

These folks are independnetly wealthy so the government government support issue should not be of any concern. They are protestant (Baptist) if I remember correctly so moral objection to birth control should not be the issue. What is terrible to me is that the children have no childhood. As soon as they are old enough to begin to take care of themselves they are required to help take care of a younger sibling. Let your kids be kids not nannies. From what I understand only two things will stop her from having more children.... menopause or death whicheve comes first.

When the world population needs more resources than Earth can give, I would say that is over-population...

The fact that there are millions more people having babies that won't be nearly as good of members to society as those children will be, and that judging the population issue based on ONE family is the equivalent of estimating the wealth of your average American based on someone who's very well off.

The Earth is past overpopulation. But if you think bearing no children compared to bearing 17 children for no rational reason (like working on a farm for food or something), then it'll be hard to convince you of anything involving numbers.
