"Human reproduction is set to work so mom gets pregnant appx. every 2-2.5 years after the birth of a child, depending on how often she nurses baby. Nursing on demand will usually inhibit ovulation; so the longer mom nurses the longer it will be between pregnancies." Okay this one takes the cake. That was what my sister was told and she believed it and feed on demand and often.... she has 4 children one right after the other NOT 2.5 or 2 years apart more like 1 year and maybe a tad more but not much. She had her tubes taken out as she could not do birth control. I was supposed to not be a fertile mertile as so many like to call it I had 2 and then not another for 5 years .....all of the others are no more than 17 months apart(6 of them). I did FEED ON DEMAND and very often!!! The doctor even had to say you can not breastfeed any longer because....duh your pregnant(* never had any real signs did not get sick, and such just a never would cause my hip to hurt... My oldest daughter and husband would know before I would even suspect....hahaha also I was not supposed to have children and have polycystic ovarian syndrome which means that my female ovaries and such pretty much are all screwed up, plus endometriosis. Look it up and you will be like my doctor who delivered the last 5 amazed that some of us women even have children.
The judgment of how larger families must do it ... NO ONE knows what goes on behind doors in someone else family. I have to remind my children that their parents are standing right there and we can tell the child(sibling) if we feel they are doing wrong. I had an attorney tell me one time, who was from a big family that those children seem to correct each other more and expect each other to act right more so than those with a smaller family. I guess that is with more chaos can explode things faster with a greater number. Maybe it is a self-preservation thing? The statement about not turning out right because they come from a big family is just terrible!!! I am sorry that is truly judging everyone one by the one example had by one family. That would be like saying everyone who is Hispanic must have slipped over the boarder and be illegal. My Dad happens to come from a large family and they all turned out pretty good honest citizens. heck most all the brothers defended our country by signing up not by being drafted because they felt it their duty as a citizen.
And the God thing.... come on guys FREEDOM of religion and the way we choose to believe if FREE for all not just those who are Atheist ,Pagan or Wicca and so on.
Another note we have a boy who comes here almost every day who drives me crazy ... he is so wasteful and does not care one bit about anything... he comes here because he is bored out of his mind(*his words), it is just him and his sister. He is not a good apple and I have to remind him to not curse or make crude girl jokes.........so the number in a family does not a make bad apples, it is those who just are that way because they have not been taught any better or sometimes because they just are.
Adoption is not for everyone I could not do it and would not want to. I grew up with an adopted brother whom my parents adopted as an older child, 5 years old. It scarred me for life, I was the baby then I was not I was only 9 months older than him. He and I sometimes are the same age. My parents coddled him because he was not wanted by his natural mother. He got in to drugs and stole.... took him a good long time to turn his life back around. So if you want to adopt feel free to do so but do not expect everyone else to have the same need to pick up what someone else left. There is a friend of my husband's and he adopted a whole large family.... just found out they got a huge check every year from the government to "HELP" raise those adopted children... not foster children but adopted children. So big that they could easily afford things that we could not now I know why. Everyone has their own life issues and choices to make we need to really stop judging others on their choices.
