More power to 'em, but I feel for the other kids. They're the ones that probably end up raising these kids and doing all the heavy lifting. I'd be extremely resentful if I was put in charge of helping to raise all of my brothers/sisters while my mother pops out kids left and right. How do you have time to be a normal kid? How do you have time to interact with friends other than your brothers/sisters?
did you read the article?
The older children help raise the younger ones under a buddy system.
Fuck that. Your job shouldn't be to help raise your siblings, that's your parents jobs. Your job is to give them hell, horse around with them -- you know, be a brother/sister, not a third parent.
I have a lot of friends that are resentful for being left in charge with raising their younger siblings while their parents did other things.
