It's just weird. I mean, at this point, some of the siblings must be standing at the fridge, grabbing the milk, looking at the others like, "Sorry, your names again? Have we met?"

There will be a 30 year gap between the eldest and youngest- that must be some kind of record?!

Every time they say this is the last and yet here’s another one due only 17 months after the previous birth.

TheVanguard I think they are more familiar with each other than the parents.

She is not well. Poor kids.

Not at all. It might be unusual but it isn't a record . My DH was 31 when his youngest sister was born - his mother was 17 when he was born and 48 when his sister came along. There were 10 children , with fairly large gaps between them.

I'm not all that familiar with the Radfords, but saw the them other day on TV - they seem very happy and sensible to me. Other than having a very large family they seem very normal.

ugh They are so selfish

Poor kids

@ShippingNews I’m interested to know why you’d describe them as sensible? I’ve not heard that before. Not bashing, genuinely curious.

ShippingNews

I'm not sure sensible and the Radfords ever belong in the same sentence.
Sue was pregnant at 13 and had her first at 14, he was just 17 I think?

I did see a bit of their program once and she was talking to some of her daughters saying don't have as many as I have etc.
He came across as an absolute slime ball, I got the impression it's him that wants more and more children and she goes a long with it.

The whole dynamic of their relationship seems really fucked up.

I really hope mother nature takes the decision out of their hand and soon because they will never stop.
