    4 Grand parents, 2 parents, 4 aunt’s and uncles, 12 cousins, 2 siblings, 42 nieces and nephews. And multiply by 2 on your wife’s side. It’s not really that crazy.

    Edit: whoops was supposed to reply to another comment.

    Off-topic:

    There was one guy who said I make up 1 in 75 in his family…

    Are their families seriously 75 strong? Birth control sounds like an enormous issue in this part of the world.

        I mean…even for someone in a wealthy context, that would seem oversized.

        Thr birth control topic seems like something nobody wants to touch with a 43 1/2 foot pole…

        Sounds like condoms would be manna from heaven in terms of keeping things reasonable. Nobodies going to subsidize people who can’t afford 1 kid having 10

          How so? Each member is only raising four or three children here. If you’re having issues with people having more than two children then that’s just kind of ridiculous, frankly.

          The only 13.2588 meter pole here is the one you’re using to avoid saying “I’m pro-eugenics” with.

      Birth control seems like a slightly less pressing issue than an ongoing genocide. You’re coming off as extremely callous here.
