The popular story is that, on Groucho’s 1950s TV quiz show “You Bet Your Life,” a female contestant said that the reason she had 22 kids was “because I love children, and I think that’s our purpose here on earth, and I love my husband.” To which Groucho supposedly replied: “I love my cigar, too, but I take it out of my mouth once in a while.”

that poor woman - imagine being pregnant more than 15 years (assuming some twins) of your life, with 22 kids there probably were a bunch of miscarriages too. the toll it took on her body must have been horrifying.

Everyone is assuming this is one guy that got his wife pregnant a bunch of times.
Who’s to say that this isn’t some Brady Bunch scenario where two three or even four families of children got mashed together.
Ye. It looks like a grandparent’s car. But still looks like 8 adults, with 3 other small people groups. So, that’s 8-3 for the couples. 5 is still a lot. But makes more sense.
That’s a scoreboard

I was always a little curious about the practicality of many children - assuming you get past the part about always being pregnant.
How is there even a house? I grew up sharing a room. My Mom grew up more barracks style to share a former among six of them. This is an entirely different level.
How do you get them places? My brother knows someone with six and they’re talking about needing a commercial van/bus
I grew up with hand me downs so I can see clothes a bit easier. And home made meals with frequent pasta / you can scale up basic cooking, but it will always be pretty basic. Even McDonalds would be a fortune. How can you take your kids for ice cream? Heck, how do you make pancakes?
How do you get them places?
By letting them. If they are old enough to want to get somewhere, they are sure old enough to use public transport.
What public transport?

I think it’s grandparents indeed. I also like how they’ve included 2 dogs (I think, the picture is a bit grainy).
Plot twist: this is Utah and there are no daughters only wives and sons and one guy.
What’s the chance these kids are the worst students in the class.
If they didn’t have good grades they didn’t get a sticker. This is the cream of the crop.
You guys are overthinking. They probably just found a pack of family stickers and started pasting them on there.
They’re actually advertising for an orphanage so every time a child gets adopted they cross one out.
I would absolutely hate to see family stickers with increasing numbers of children crossed out???
Im guessing you are not american?
Well that beat any of my school mates.
