16 kids in 18 years
Discussion
That's shocking news. And we wonder where all the local government expenditure is going cnn said:
Their children include two sets of twins, and each child has a name beginning with the letter "J": Joshua, 17; John David, 15; Janna, 15; Jill, 14; Jessa, 12; Jinger, 11; Joseph, 10; Josiah, 9; Joy-Anna, 8; Jeremiah, 6; Jedidiah, 6; Jason, 5; James, 4; Justin, 2; Jackson Levi, 1; and now Johannah
Jinger?! LMFAO!!!!
and poor little Jeremiah and Jedidiah must have been p*ssed off that the lads younger than them got normal names like James and Jason......
So Jim Bob didn't make the Senate then? I wonder why that would be....
So they are a gift from God then and they think the Lord wants to give them more children? Perhaps God can give the average American taxpayer extra wedge to pay for them....

"Ooooooohhh, I have a very clever Idea! Lets grant each of our offspring a name beginning with the same letter of the alphabet. Its pure genius!"
Wasn't very unusual in Ireland up until the mid 1960s. I went to school where some of the lads in my class were one of tweleve or one of eighteen.
However, that was then and this is now and the social and economic imperatives that caused these large families no longer operate, even in Ireland.

They are not on benefits, but a working family.
That is the difference between America and here, only the Chav's can afford to have that size of family here.
Good luck to them I say, I bet most of their children turn out right.
Sounds like the guy obviously earns a fair amount of money and is not sponging of the state. So what's the problem? If they were on a council estates (not sure you can get 10 bedroom houses) and claiming benefits I could see an issue. Hopefully they will bring their children up well. They look a lot nicer family than the most of the breeding population (kids for benefits) of this country.

Here here I totally agree. There's no reason at all why a couple shouldn't have 5, 6 or as many children as they want. There's a lovely family in the town that my parents live in, they have 6 children......and before you scream..... 4 of them, yes 4, got into to Cambridge University.
However what there should be a limit on is the number of children that you can receive benefit for, 2 would seem reasonable.
