Did anyone see the women with TWENTY children yesterday?

[hulababy]

One of my prisoners was reading the newspaper when I visited him for an appointment yesterday - Mail I think, although not sure. There was an article in there and the women involved had twetnty children, none of which were multiple births. Eldest was 27 IIRR and there was pretty much one a year after that!

TWENTY children, can you imagine?!

umm, why were you keeping this poor woman prisoner? what mnet rule had she broken?? Was she wearing an england shirt?

No I can't

I met a family at the playground - dad with 8 kids, then the mum turned up with the other 4. They were hoping to have a 13th and I was quite impressed by that number but 20! Wow!

If i had 20 children I would have left my DH for a ginger soldier I met on the t'internet aswell

oh my goodness....how on earth did she look?

the people who lived opposite us when I was growing up had 14 children (in a 3 bedroom house), I thought that was quite a lot!

Alliebingo - I think if I had 20 children, a night in a prison might seem like luxury.

She was actually leaving her husband for another man I think.

I cna't find a link online

But where did she find the time to get together with another man?!

that was a piss poor attempt at humour. i take it you work in a prison

LOL, yes I do!

I got it Allie, made me snort

like a laughing dragon

i must give the lady her due she look pretty good after 20 children. think after 20 i would look like absorpaloff from dr whoafter 2 i cna see the likeness

Don't think she'd by going on that many trampolines or sneezing too often after 20 children!!!

Nan had sixteen, that involved a few multiples too but she couldn't remember how manynexactly! Seriously.

She had a hard life, and was bed ridden for the last forty years (including last two kids, my Dad was second to last). As a result of the life she had, he spent his childhood expecting her to die at any moment. She didnt, she lived until 71 I think.

My Grandad ont he other side was one of 11. I have very common genes!

Oh god I know that woman with 20 children. She lives near me. She was due at the same time I was twice.

Was also gonna say some other stuff about her, but then thought 'oh dear, what if she's a mumsnetter'. Keep gob shut moonie

Dp's mother is 1 of 17

Don't tease moonie...

she's got 20 kids. do you think she's got time for the computer? i think you're safe, so spill! 'grin]

I know someone who is one of 24 kids all were multple births except theirs .(good catholic family)

She DOES have time for the computer coz she has leaving hubby and kids for a bloke she's met on-line!!!

A friend of mine is one of 17. When he gets asked why his parents had so many kids he always replies (in his NY accent) "hey, they were horny, what can I tell ya?"

Here she is, bless her

She fell for a bloke who called himself Ginger Squaddie' Oh dear Nicola, think twice lovey.

I saw this on the news-stand... from my hurried reading, it seemed she'd lost loads of weight so it could be that relationship goes stale, lose loads of weight, discover you are still attractive thing? Or maybe she woke up one morning and thought, OMG, what have I DONE, if I have to wipe one more nose/bottom I'll go mad?
