Search on their name, there are tons of articles on these Catholic creepers.
From this article in 2016: [https://ccli.org/2016/07/how-this-mom-of-13-lives-out-humanae-vitae/]
Quote:
When our boys are around no baby goes unnoticed, no small child is ignored and the thought of holding their own precious gift one day is something they all look forward to experiencing. As stated in Humanae Vitae, “children are the supreme gift of marriage and contribute in the highest degree to their parents’ welfare.”
Note that she doesn't say when the boys are outside playing no baby goes unnoticed and no small child is ignored....
In other words the older kids are babysitters, of course. How fun to spend their childhood parenting! How very 1910 of them!

Yeah, I wouldn't get too bent out of shape about that. Primates, including chimps, bonobos, gorillas, gibbons, orangutans, and Rhesus monkeys all use the older kids to babysit the younger ones. It helps train them for parenthood, which I know is a dirty thought in this forum, but it works for evolution.

Forced parenting has turned more than one person CF. I feel sorry for people who had that experience. But there's probably less parental regret among breeders who have had real experience with children before reproducing. (And I'd hate for the latter argument to be a reason for exposing all children to the experience of childrearing - it would be unnecessary torture to anyone who already knows they are CF.)

I thought it was one of those huge adoption stories, but nope they are all their own. The commenters are disgusted with them. After 8 of them how would the husband know he was even "in there" Ewww

In a thread a few months ago we discussed a story about a couple who had been allowed to adopt numerous special-needs children. Needless to say, the family's lives sucked for lack of money... Here's that story: Couple adopts 20+ special-needs kids
