big families

Apparently big families are trendy right now. I don’t see how that makes any sense. Having kids isn’t a trend. You can’t get rid of them when it’s not trendy any more. And this article considers “big” to be anything more than 2. I don’t consider my family with 4 kids big, I consider it normal. I always felt bad for my friends with only 1 or no siblings because they had no one to play with. My mom came from 4 kids, my dad from 5. Both of my parents’ dads came from 3 kids, and my mom’s mom came from 4. My dad’s mom came from 7 though, and most of them had lots of kids. Two had 6, one 8, and one 9. I can’t imagine having less than 4 when I do eventually have kids. Big families seem much more fun and weird than little ones.
