How many is too many?

Is it actually possible to have too many children? If you can always feed and care for them is there a real number cap to stop at? Why is it that a family of 18 is okay for a TV show family but not the normal Jane and Jack?

With the world population getting overcrowded I don't think it is right for me at least to contribute to that. If you can take care of those kids then I guess it's okay but from my point of view think of what we as humans are doing to our home.

"How can there be too many children? That is like saying there are too many flowers." ~Mother Teresa

The world population is NOT getting overcrowded. That is a myth. MOST countries have reproductive rates that will cause them to *die out* in just a few generations. Even the USA is quickly nearing that rate of reproduction.

I think it's wonderful to see large families.

I also am a big fan of large families and am willing to have as many children as my husband will agree to. Of course we aren't very well off so in actuality 2 or 3 will be it for us but I love seeing really large families.
