Yes Melissa, you are indeed correct

So on that last post I mentioned how Seth has decided he wants eight children someday. Melissa, of Sugared Harpy, commented that I shouldn’t let him near the Duggar daughters. I had no idea what this meant so I googled it.
Here’s what I found: http://www.jimbob.info/
These people have 15 children! 15! Apparently, this family is famous because Movin’ Mom said something about them too.
Wow. Now there’s a woman who REALLY likes to “put out”. My main question is this: HOW is her uterus STILL in her body? Wouldn’t it have dropped down to her knees by now?
Forget questions regarding an organized house. What I want to know is how does she and her hubby find time to have sex? Do they have their own landfill in the back yard? I would think you’d need one with all of those diapers. What does she do if she gets a migraine? What happens when a stomache virus sweeps through the house?
I have ONE child. And there are many days where I tell myself that if I can keep my last shred of sanity by his nap time, I will then find a steak knife and tie my OWN tubes. So this mother is obviously MUCH more patient than I could ever be.
The couple claims to be like most ordinary, average families. But, I found this little nugget on their site: “Michelle & I did not have any children for the first 4 years of marriage. We chose to use the birth control pill…. We then realized we had the same heart attitude about children as those willfully choosing abortion (wanting to make our own plans, live our own lives, children could be a bother or interruption).
Gee Jim-Bob, I might be complete moron but I don’t think ordinary, average people equate using birth control to having an abortion. Me thinks comments like these are reasons why you lost your bid for Senate.
And if you want a family this big, that’s fine. Its none of my business. But frankly, I’m scared to stand within two miles of you for fear of getting pregnant. You’re obviously one potent dude.
As for my son, someday I hope he finds a woman who will love and cherish him as much as he will love/cherish her. But if her last name is “Duggar”, I’ll smile and nod when I meet her — because I’m sure she’ll be a lovely lass but I will knock him out and give him a vasectomy when she’s not looking. Because I’m sure even doing that will still net them at least four or five children.

They did a whole show on them on TLC. I’m not so much for the 15 kids myself…
Yeah, and every time they have another one they just say if it’s in “god’s plan” they’ll have more. Hey, hint here buddy: if ya do the dance with your woman w/o birth control, then more kids are in god’s plan! Cheese and rice. I agree with you, I dunno how her uterus is in her body.
15? what? why? i am so confused!
Ha! I’m sorry to scare you like that!
Kind of.
Okay, it’s fine by me if they have a billion kids as long as they can provide for them. Don’t get me wrong, I think they’re crazy as hell, but whatever. Oh, and then there’s that overpopulating the Earth thing, but to each their own I suppose….I looked at their website, and apparently they live “debt free”, too. So not only can they handle 15 kids, they don’t have debt. I feel insane with mucho debt and no kids. I think ole Michelle is on some sort of happy pill……
After you have 3 they pretty much raise one another. I guess that is how they find time for more sex…built in babysitters!
hello Melissa
You are funny.
My girls go as far as to tell me the layout of their future homes (which all seem to be in the $2 million range), the floor plans are varied but include swimming pools and loft beds… and of course numerous sports cars in the garage….
I just heard today - conicidentally - about my friend who is expecting her sixth….
I was a little stunned but no that stunned since I have 4… but 15!
Yep, this just really gives me the heaby-jeabies!
I only have two kids. And I don’t have a landfill out back.
My house IS a landfill.
I don’t know how true it is because I haven’t been able to find much out on my father’s side of the geneology tree…
But he claimed that my great grandfather was one of 22 children…
Damn Irish~Catholics!
Seriously….I don’t get it. Do they even remember their names? Do the use a whistle like Captain Van Trapp?
My favorite line of this whole post, “Gee Jim-Bob!” Ha! I could say it all day…I think I’ll try out calling my boss Jim-Bob!
I think I saw the TLC special on them. I have to question how fair it is to have so many children only to expect the older ones to have so much responsibility for the younger ones. If I recall correctly each older kid was responsible for a younger one. How can you have a normal childhood like that? And whatever happened to kids getting a little one-on-one time? I don’t think God himself has enough time to give each of those kids an ear every day.
Good god the craziness! My uterus hurts out of sympathy. I know a family that had 18 kids in my hometown. It’s not only Irish Catholics, Tom. It’s German Catholics as well. That, or too much beer maybe.
Ok - there was just an updated special about them on TLC.

They actually have only 14 children. They all start with a J. They are EXTREMELY organized - and she homeschools them all. It is just amazing…check out that website.
On a side note - my uncle and his wife have at least 13 children, maybe 14…apparently she gets terrible migraines - unless she’s preggers…
I have a crazy family. They have 13 - and I don’t want one.
Wait - I lied. They have 16. Apparently the people on TLC can’t count…they said 14, yet I counted 16. There will be a show on June 11th called ON the Road with 16 children.
I figure when you have that many kids, they just sort of look out for each other so you and your husband can just “do it” all day and night?
Yeah, right. Because that couple looks like a couple of folks that like to get it on?
Gross!!
Let me tell you what I got out of watching 16 and moving into a new home (which the kids built in dresses and dockers) that everyone needs a commercial dishwasher which they got at an auction. I believe it was $100,000 dollars worth of equipment for $11,000 dollars. 2 of everything. But the best was the DISHWASHER that did a load n 3 minutes!!!! Hellooooo
Got to have it! also the other great thing was 4 washers and 4 dryers…..I only have 4 kids but I got to have it!
After so many kids, if I were that woman, I wouldn’t have to worry too much about finding time to have sex with my husband.
I wouldn’t want him within five city blocks of me. Look what happened the last fifteen times he was…
We have a dialysis patient (I’m an EMT with an ambulance company) that informed me he has 22 children…not all from the same woman of course..I’m sure 10 would leave any decent uterus dragging on the ground behind you…but he sired the first one at the tender age of 13 !!! Per him, he needed a hobby. Per me…GET A JOB !!! Of course he is an unemployed medicaid recipient. Un married…so you can imagine…even at 50.00 per child a month (which is piss change) he would have to pay out 1100.00 a month in child support alone. This is just theoretically speaking. His oldest is now 36. He is only 49. I guess my point is: I have one child..and that will be it for me..I don’t know how some people can have this amount of children…it blows my mind!!!
