    4 Grand parents, 2 parents, 4 aunt’s and uncles, 12 cousins, 2 siblings, 42 nieces and nephews. And multiply by 2 on your wife’s side. It’s not really that crazy.

        Thr birth control topic seems like something nobody wants to touch with a 43 1/2 foot pole…

        The only 13.2588 meter pole here is the one you’re using to avoid saying “I’m pro-eugenics” with.

        I mean…even for someone in a wealthy context, that would seem oversized.

        How so? Each member is only raising four or three children here. If you’re having issues with people having more than two children then that’s just kind of ridiculous, frankly.

        Also raising children being a ridiculously expensive affair is partly a Western problem with uniquely Western causes. It’s not a thing everywhere.
