I got nothing.

Michelle Dugger is pregnant with her 18th kid.

Wowza.

I mean more power to her, but man. That cootie has really taken a beating hasn't it?













I'm sorry. That's really all I have today.

ya know, there *is* such a thing as natural family planning, What do they do ONLY have sex when she's fertile?

for the love of cream cheese, please tell me that you are kidding.

she doesn't believe in birth control, and i? think she's insane.

and she'll run out of j names soon. (i think it's J -- all their kids names start with the same letter)

I think someone should tell her the magic words: "Not tonight, honey. I have a headache." Some name suggestions: Jiminey Christmas! Jeez Louise! Jeepers! Justcutitout!

Seriously!! I know that some people don't believe in any contraceptives (I had to think to be able to spell that, so you know I don't use 'em, lol) but sometimes enough is enough!!

Just two make me want to stab myself with a pencil sometimes, I can't imagine 18. I would have started selling them after 5...okay that is a joke, I don't want any haters on my site again telling me I am evil for selling children.

I know what you mean, I thought when I read the story..Geez, and I jut wanted to have oneand can't even do that. How is it this woman has 18!!

yep... I am also amazed. And I think she is absolutely crazy for birthing all those babies drug free. I only had to do one natural childbirth and I thought I would never recover. Epidurals are a girls best friend.

I am personally amazed her cootie isn't dragging on the ground from birthing all those children. Seriously. You just know it's stretched to the max. Ok I'll stop. I mean she should stop. I mean someone should stop already. Perhaps the husband?!

My husband asked me if all she had to do was cough a little and the baby would just fall out. I told him, either that or sneeze once.

I go crazy with just my two. I think with 18..I'd have to shoot myself in the foot, over and over and over...and over...and over....

More power to her I guess!

I think she must use duct tape on that thing, with little holes cut in it for drainage. Otherwise there's no way that cootie isn't laying on the ground all the time. I mean, after 18 uses it must resemble a 30 gallon hefty bag. From that kind of stretching, who knows? There might be more kids, still hiding in there. How would she know the difference? She's always pregnant anyway.

Srsly, they aren't raising that many kids, I read their blog and how things work at their house. Basically Jim Bob and Michelle are CEO and Director of Operations of a Boarding School filled with only their children. The older children are raising the younger children. Mom and Dad are merely the top of the chain of command. Sort of like a christian orphanage, only all the kids are theirs. Sad, really. And to define what they are doing as parenting is the same as saying that the Pregnant Man is a real Man. She isn't, and they aren't. She's a baby machine for Jeebus. He's her PR flack. They're crazy.

I know--- that just seems a little on the wrong side of crazy, if you ask me.

Tamar said...

Yeah, my first thought was 'I wonder which teenager will get assigned to the last baby, now?'

I'm all for having older siblings help out with the younger ones from time to time. But when you're having so many children that you're basically using your elder daughters as unpaid nannies, it's time to stop.
