Stupid Hormones

Last night before drifting off to dream my fingers stopped changing the channels & it just happened to land on TLC and this was on. Call me selfish or even narrow minded but enough is enough. For one, how can someone support 18 kids? For two, who would want too? A co-worker of mine has four kids and their tax return is around $10,000 annually. Doing simple math you would figure these 18 crumb snatchers would net a return of $40,000; easily an annual salary for anyone. I understand we live in a free country and can breed as we please. I also understand biblical scripture encouraging us all to be to "fruitful and multiply" and no I am not mocking or being blashpemous of the Holy Bible. I suppose my orchard is barren or either has really long winters because I have chosen not to be fruitful up to this point. Can you imagine giving birth to 18 children? It almost makes me gag with repulsion. Aren't we over populated now? Can't they adopt children that nobody else wants? Each Duggar child/teen/tween has their own chore list, basically, the parents - Jim Bob & Stephanie - have an entire staff of worker bees to meet their every need. Have you ever noticed that families with many children are either very religious oriented, poor or live in trailers? What is the connection here?

Andrew Dice Clay - remember him? Famous for making sweet little nursery rhymes into something a little more sinister:

There was an old lady
Who lived in a shoe
She had so many kids
Her uterus fell out

Maybe it is the Duggars calling to be an extra value meal size family and minister to all in need - For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. ~~ Matthew 18:20

To each their own and in the Duggars case its 18 and counting and in mine it has to be suppression of raging hormones.
