What is so wussy is when normies today say “I can’t handle the ONE kid I have!” Guaranteed they have no religious faith. Whether Trad Catholics, Amish, Mormons, Orthodox Jews, or strict Muslims, etc., big families that are deeply religious can work just fine.
.
The bigger kids will help with the little ones — and “the family that prays together stays together.” (I am familiar with Trad. Catholics — the Latin Mass ones — though not one myself, and I saw adorable and well-behaved kids, and couples that visibly were happy.)

But these days, if you just drift along spiritually with no beliefs about the big questions of life, the chaos will overtake you.

“If you drift along spiritually with no beliefs about the big questions of life, the chaos will overtake you.” Well said, John. So very true.

One child is much harder than more. With one, you have to be involved, with more they are friends, companions, and cohorts. They play together, imagine together, and learn.

Kristine Huddleston So true. And it has been true for millennia.

The family looks Irish, and the husband and wife actually look similar. I think couples that look similar ARE similar. My late wife of 17 years and I had many facial features in common.

We met on April 20, 2005 and by the end of two weeks she had moved in with me, and later we married.
.
But she could not have kids after being violently raped by a ngr in Wash DC, and finally, after years of bleeding, she had a hysterectomy.
.
She said to me with great sadness before she died: “If I had had kids, they would be right here with me, supporting and caring for me.”
.
While I loved Margi with all my heart, and nearly had a stroke when she died, I had the total burden for 4 1/3 years of caring for her, because she was childless — against her will.

Thanks, Honest Abe, for freeing the slaves. It has turned out exactly as Robert E. Lee predicted, a slow-motion race war against us.
The golden sword of General Lee, which he did not offer in surrender to libtard Grant:

I grew up in a family of two children: myself and my sister of two years younger. We both received a lot of attention and money was available for both of us for higher education. If I had grown up in a family of seven children, as my mother had done, these advantages would not have been available to my sister or myself.
