4 of the kids are hers from a previous marriage. But still....thats a LOT of children to take care of. They have an 8 month old and a 12 month old. Only 4 months apart??? Wow!

I come from a military family and from my dad's second marriage. He only has two and I'm one of them.

That can't be, can it? The 1 year old has to be more than 12 months. Wouldn't they have to be a minimum of 9 months apart?

its my understanding that he had all those kids before going into the military, the reserves are the only ones who would take him and now he's called up.

so really its not that military people should stop having kids, its that people with bunches of kids should think long and hard before joining the military.

Whew. I thought that there was some secret part of the female anatomy that I'd been left in the dark about that let you get pregnant while you were pregnant. I was thinking to myself, "How could I have missed THAT in school?"

Or that everyone should think hardly before having that many kids. Damn. :p

Or that a man with a house full of kids will do ANYTHING to get a little time away from them.

Ladies, if your husband just stops at the bar for an hour a few nights a week, count yourself lucky. ;)

As someone who grew up around the military and has experienced too many trips to the commisary on payday, it's not you. There seems to be mandatory policy of a brat every two years, at least with the army and air force. I am just glad that I never had to live in housing, being around my siblings was bad enough.

"We go to a really good church, and they talk in there a lot about the husband's and the wife's role, what the Bible says is the husband's and wife's role," she explains. "And my role is to support my husband. My mother told me when I got married, 'Your life is about him, and you need to be there for him.'"

What the fuck?!

How brainwashed do you ahve to be to be this stupid? Gah!

Let's be judgemental of others. It's much easier than judging ourselfs.

Maybe one of them is adopted. And I have no problem with military, or any other family, having lots of kids. I think it is great.

I'm guessing the 1 year old is probably 18-22 months, not exactly 1 year old.

At least the folks didn't murder any of their babies while they were still in the womb through the 'legal' crime of abortion.

Not in the Navy, though aircraft carriers and ships aren't always the safest places.

The funniest thing about this story is some European posters ridiculing the guy, while European governments are begging their citizens with huge cash subsidies to have kids, and failing. Most of the Western world would kill for more people like this guy. ;)
