[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a mom that is open to life and so far I have 5 children. When I read the TTC or infertility forum I realize how blessed I am and it encourages me not to take my own fertility for granted. This is a very judgemental thread. If they were lesbians that adopted 20 transgendered kids and were raising them as atheists they would get a standing ovation. Oh the irony[/quote] Every so often there's a Duggar-related thread on DCUM. For the most part, the judgement isn't about the size of the family. It is more about the choices they make in how they raise their children (minimal education, girls submissive) and the sense that the parents are having the children but not doing the actual work of raising them instead leaving that to their older daughters. Yes, in larger families everyone chips in. I'd contend that in the Duggar famiily those girls are doing far more than "chipping in". They aren't taking turns babysitting their siblings, they are raising them. Big difference.[/quote]
