[quote=Anonymous]I'm the 6th of 12 and there is no way in hell I am ever having that many kids. I enjoyed having a large family when I was younger-there were always people to play with, never a dull moment, etc but as I got older it got old quickly. My parents spent every waking moment taking care of kids, there wasn't much space or privacy, we definitely weren't rich, no money for college, and few vacations because vacations with 12 kids are pretty much impossible. My parents did a great job raising us and I envy their dedication and resolve but I am not cut out to raise more than 2 or 3 kids. I don't think growing up in a large family made me this way. I have a career and live in the city whereas my parents lived in a smallish town and my mom had no interest in working. My parents were pretty Catholic and their brothers and sisters had a lot of kids too, so as a result I had at least 40 first cousins. Family gatherings were interesting.[/quote]
