[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I do feel like there is a trend to have large families as a show of wealth. Kind of a humble brag that you can afford to. It's a rich big family thing that I think comes from rich influencers? This perfect family image with matching outfits? Maybe it is a Mormon influencer thing? I do think a lot of what is big is dependent on how close the kids are spaced. Having 4+ kids back to back gives Duggar family. If you have 4 with a wide age gap the oldest is often basically an adult. [/quote] I know a lot of Mormon women with big families, and it is kind of a prestige thing. Not really a show of wealth, but kind of like showing off what a great mother you are that you are able to handle all of these kids and raise them well. It’s kind of like having a prestigious job that’s well known for being both technically and emotionally difficult and having long hours. If you can really do it and do it well, you have achieved something. [/quote]
