I'd like to know that, other than what they've made from television. The people that had 7 or 8 kids(McCaughey I think there name is)got to do some endorsements, and the father makes money doing speeches. They also received many donations.

That was common in my grandparents day; the older kids taking care of the younger ones. It does mature kids awfully fast.

If they're loving parents and can provide for their kids, I see nothing wrong with it. It's not something I'd do or most people would do. Brad and Angelina could wind up with 12 kiddos one of these days!
