My parents both came from large families my mom has 14 bio siblings and my father has 12. They where all loved and cared for and they are all a close knit family even today. Life is what you put into it, as is parenting. I have parented 28 children, some bio, some step and some foster, some of them adopting. I consider 11 of them my forever family. I have never felt any of them where ever given less time, love or effort than the others. We where all given our special talents by God, and I believe that with HIM we can do anything. I think big families are great, and I also think that if God gave us the ability and the means and 100 children to raise, how can we turn our back on them? As far as the money goes, We have homecoming dance this week and I have to buy suits and shirts and dress shoes for 4 boys this week. Hmmm, I am thinking that is going to be more than I get on the check this month. I have been doing this for a while and I haven't gotten rich yet.
