When i grow up I want to have just 35 children all natural.I don't believe in abortion or contraceptives.My boyfriend thinks I'm crazy but the more the merrier.Is it wrong for me to want a couple of football teams and more?

It is crazy of you~ sorry to say. There is no way you could afford to raise 35 children properly unless you are a millionaire. Haven't you seen the contraversy over the gal who now has 14 children? She is living off of our tax dollars...is that your plan too?

yeah i saw that.i was wondering though with the website she had to raise the money did people actually donate any money to her because she bought expensive things with the money she had.what ever became of this situation?

I don't know if things have been donated to her. I think that is why she had all these kids for the free handouts.

I have two dear sons and one day I would love to have a daughter. That would be enough children for me. I am a primary school teacher so I am used to teaching 30 children but I wouldn't want that many in my own home. A school is large but not many homes are large enough for that number of children. If you have a large home and lots of money I think your plan is fine. However once you have had the first ten you might consider that you will do natural family planning. I suggest you become a PE teacher because you love football so much.

Having children is not wrong. You just need to be sure that you can afford to take care of all of them, and give them the attention they all need. We have two children right now, and I wouldn't mind having a couple more. We're just not the position of more kids right now.

Blimey - that is a LOT of children! I just can't imagine anyone being able to cope with all those children, especially as you'll be pregnant most of the time. I don't think you are wrong to want that many children, though. It shows that you have a lot of love to give, but raising children also requires a lot of money, time and resources.

LoL!! I can't imagine delivering that many babies even if i'm not delivering them all in one go... but, just thinking myself getting pregnant every year scares me... LoL... i only wanna have 3 kids considering all the factors such as financial issues, etc... anyway you're an amazing woman if you can do with all those 35 you mentioned you're wishing to have. good luck!!

That is A LOT of kids and you should get starting already.. or start saving up because kids are expensive. Each one needs a lot of attention. I want to have only one and adopt 2 more.

Ahh,my friend,If you are a millionaire,I think maybe you can raise all the 35 children.But don't you find that if you have such a large amount of children,and can you swear that you can give each of them enough love?They will be lonly because of your lack of love.For me ,I think a boy and a girl are just ok!Furthermore,if you are Chinese or Indian,the governments may not let you give birth to 35 children,those countries believe one child in a family is the best. Enjoy mylotting!

i am 1 and half yr married to my husband, and we plan to start a family by this yr, which means having kids. we been talking about how many we want to have and we both agreed on having just 2, which i think is amount of kids we can only afford as raising kids here in the U.S is very expensive and also small family is a healthy family, we want to make sure we can sent the kids to school until college for their future. happy posting!!!
