Of course if they really wanted to go O.T. then he could knock up the maids that they might bear children upon her knees. And then they could clean up her knees.
One might ponder that if the Today Show’s producers just shook their heads and said, “It’s been done,” maybe they’d stop. I get a distinct whiff of media-whoredom from these people.
Joshua, 23, appears to be starting an M series. His two kids are Mackynzie [sic] and Michael.
The older kids have to (help) take care of their younger siblings.
And risk Sue Grafton suing their ass? No way!
One of my friends suggested Jermajesty.
Where’s the pukey smilie?
Can she even tell her kids apart? I seem to remember reading she just hands them off to one of the older kids as soon as she drops them.
I don’t wish her or her new baby ill, but daaaaaaaaaaaaamn, woman. Why don’t you just spend a little time with the ones you already have instead of spending all your time on pregnancy bed rest?
I really feel sorry for her daughters. Some role model. Cats are better mothers that that stupid slitch.
Yep, that’s always :dubious: me, too. On top of that: a highly publicized (and televised - right?) pregnancy for a high-risk woman? And then another, and then another? At some point, during one of these pregnancies, things aren’t going to go so camera-ready. It seems like an inevitablity to me that, eventually, something will go very badly wrong.
I believe that name is taken by one of Jermaine Jackson’s kids.
Like any big family does. There is also ‘this is Mommy and Daddy time so unless it’s a life or death situation don’t bother us’. Mom was the oldest of nine, and there were larger families who lived up the road so I’ve heard the stories and had my own taste at family gatherings, being the oldest cousin it was often delegated to me to help keep watch. That’s just how you make a big family work.
At 45 and after 21 pregnancies (only one miscarriage right?) it’s time to give it a rest but they probably won’t stop until she dies or finally can’t conceive anymore. This one will have to be a c-section won’t it? The last one was an emergency due to pre-eclampsia so with this one that would make 5. I’m amazed she can even conceive naturally by now.
I don’t think most big families have a betting pool for when mom’s uterus will prolapse.
That would have been better, in my opinion, than the all-J thing they have going on. It would probably make it easier to remember who’s who.
Not really. They only have problems with modern medicine when it’s being used to prevent conception or terminate an existing pregnancy. Also I think they’ve gone on record as being against reproductive technology like artificial insemination or IVF.
I very much doubt any of her daughters will have anywhere near as many children as her. At least several of them (especially the older ones) will probally end up not having any children or marrying at all. Also given the odds they have at least one gay son and lesbian daughter. Possibly several of the younger sons if certain theories on fraternal birth order are correct.
It’s morbid, but yeah I think this woman will end up dying in childbirth. I wonder if they would continue the show after something like that? Even if Jim Bob remarries any chance of the older daughters getting a life of their own would be shot. It’ll be really interesting to see how this family turns out in say 20 yrs or so when most the the kids have entered adulthood.
Not trying to dampen the fun, but shoudn’t this me MPTIMS?
EDit: Nevermind, I didn’t realize this was a TV show!
Has she ever identified which of the daughters are potential queens? That’s going to be a bloody episode.
Won’t argue there! Just commenting on how they find the time to make these babies and the passing off of kids on older ones. It’s not uncommon in big families to an extent, but this is taking things to an extreme and I think you’d find a big difference between how my relatives view their mom and the time spent with her compared to these kids with their mom and it’s just sad.
Surprising to see that they haven’t already got a Jacob.
No Jeffrey, either.
For girls names, maybe June or Joanie? They’ve really tapped out all of the reasonably common J names at this point.
Jerkov?
Janet, Janice, Julia, Juana, Joespehine, Jezebel, Juanita, Jasmine, Jesminder
I vote Jaqwan.
