How does she have 7 kids!
Trained physician, former German labor minister, German defense minister, and now eu commission president. Like where did she find the time to have a ridiculous career and have 7! |

Old families (and nobility) that go way back in Germany and Belgium (her husband is also accomplished). Probably old money. You can buy help and also there is more social support in Europe. I think it's great that she has 7 children. Big families are great, but not so affordable. I wonder if any are adopted. |

Super interesting long form article about her life, background. It seems she popped out all 7….no surrogates or adoptions |

| Europeans walk the walk when it comes to supporting working moms and families. The US - particularly the pro-life religious types - could learn a lot from Europe on these issues. |
