I know what's it's like to come from a big family. Where, if you're the youngest, you are more than likely just referred to as "hey you". This isn't a bad thing. I know a lot of people who come from even bigger families than I do. I don't, however know anybody that comes from a family of 20!!! What are they thinking?
If you've been living under a rock for the last couple of years, "they" are the Duggars from somewhere like Fertile, Arkansas. "They" are expecting their 20th kid. 20. 20, like in "holy crap how am I gonna pay for food? 20 like in, "holy crap, how am I gonna pay for diapers?" 20 like in "holy crap! What the hell were we thinking?" After 2 kids my wife would barely let me sleep in the same bed. After 10, she'd make me move to a different room. At 20, she wouldn't even let me drive down the same street!
How do they remember all the names? Is it a George Foreman kinda thing? You know, you just name 'em all the same, that way you don't have to remember a bunch of different names. In my family, there were 6 kids. All 6 of us started with a J. Mom just started at the top and stopped whenever she got to the right name. If there were 20 of us, it would take 10 minutes just to get to the right person to yell at! Do you really think they even know the middle one's names? (no offense middle siblings) (mom didn't know your middle names, but she was okay with your first ones)
Why would they do this? There's times where I think I'm gonna go to jail for killing a kid! (relax, I've never ACTUALLY killed a kid!) If there were 20 of them little boogers running around, I'd be popping back so much play nice medicine you'd have to wipe the drool from my chin. Of course, if I was taking that much play nice medicine, there probably wouldn't be 20 kids!
There are so many kids in their house they could have their own school. We barely had that many in our entire high school! They have more people in their family than a lot of orphanages in Tai Wan! (bet the Duggar kids don't have to pick rice, though) How do they cook for that many kids? How do they get them all around to their various functions? Do they really even know if there are extra kids sleeping over? It would be fun to replace one of their kids with a random stranger kid & see if they notice.
You could get the state to re-draw boundary lines and have your own voting district! I believe, (but I might be mistaken) that George Washington actually had less people than that vote for him! I don't know if I've ever even been in a room with that many people before! My bet is they keep going till they can have a full offense and a full defense. No substitutions!
