  I need to comment on the article below!  I wanted to be a mother, and I was able to have nine children.  My late husband was also happy to have a large family, and he was a school teacher, and I a stay at home mother.  I did teach some piano lessons, but otherwise he worked extra jobs, either early in the morning, of after school, and in the summer.   Now our nine children are truly a great help to the whole world!  Our children include an insurance agent, teachers, a nurse, a skilled craftsman carpenter, an administrative secretary, a paralegal, and a teacher's aide with 7 children. Their spouses include very successful people, several more teachers, psychoanalysist, computer expert, etc.  Of these,7 children have bachelor's degrees, all have college education, 3 have Master's Degrees, and we have 29 grandchildren, 26 great grandchildren, and one more on the horizon!  They all pay taxes, are honorable citizens, and a great help to the world!  We LOVE FAMILIES!  My husban
