37 year old mother of 14 (and pregnant) wins state award.
I’m guessing it’s based on quantity not quality. But that’s just me. But that’s not why I’m posting…
All start with “J”??? Jeeeeesuz! Oh wait - that’s the 16th name! :rolleyes:
NO! No naming cute! Won’t someone please think of the children!!
If I recall correctly this family was featured in Parents magazine this past summer.
She’s a braver woman that I could ever hope to be.
I’m thinkin’ Daddy needs to put Jerkoff in his vocabulary.
Could you imagine having to give “The Talk” 15 times?
I’d say someone is. And all too frequently.
:eek:14 kids and another on the way:eek:
Yikes…
Well to each their own…
that and maybe some condom use 
From an old Bennett Cerf humor collection:
A census taker stops at the home of a German immigrant family who has thirteen children, all girls.
What’s more, all their names start with the letter ‘B’.
Except the last one, whose name is ‘Alice’.
“Did you run out of names beginning with ‘B’?” smiled the census taker.
“No” said the mother. "When my husband learned that it was another girl, he declared, ‘Ach! Das is Alles!’"
Jinger? Why not Jinjer?
Oops. I misread the title, I thought this was about a 14-year-old winning the Arkansas Young Mother of the Year award.
Well, there are two sets of twins so it’s really only 13 times. :rolleyes:
[hijack]When I was a kid and we lived in Scotland, one of the daily papers held a “mum of the year” competition and a family nominated their mum who’d just had her 13th baby. My mother nearly split my head open screaming at me for not nominating her for the award … 30 years later I’m still trying to figure out why I’d have been nominating her for anything (she only had 3 kids)[/hijack]
I’m surprise they didn’t deduct points for naming one of them Jinger. I didn’t read that as Ginger, I read it as rhyming with Zinger. Alrighy then.
With 15 kids, what makes you think they know what “The Talk” is in the first place?
“Honey, we’re pregnant again!”
“Damnit, I didn’t even tip the stork last time!”
Jumping Jehosephat! And oy vey too!
A family in our school had a last name that began with Z. All the kids first names started with Z too. At least there were only 4 or 5 of them.
Her womb is like one of them newfangled repeating rifles!
I did too. Phew! Now that would have been sad.
Judging from the size of the house they’re building, it sounds as tho they can afford so many puppies.
So more power to 'em, I guess. This wouldn’t have been a big deal 100 years ago.
Although I think to have 14 kids you’ve got to be a little off the deep end … maybe not in a bad or dangerous way, but definitely not playing with a full deck …
I googled around but couldn’t find where the house money came from. Perhaps the award.
I hate living here sometimes.
Me too! I was thinking “Jinger? Jinger? Do they hate the kid.”
Jinger, rhyming with Ginger, is better, but I don’t know why they didn’t go with Jinjer, so that the kid didn’t have to go through life explaining how to pronounce the name.
Why use common sense when naming children? It’s FAR more important to be ridiculously cutesy!
