If Eight Is Enough, What About Nine?

.
You know, life is complicated enough already. Here I have two kids and just trying to feed and take care of them is already a crazy job. Imagine how much harder it would be for me if I had more kids, especially in this day and age. What with everything out there going up in price by the day.

So there I was today, doing some grocery shopping nearby. As usual, with it being a weekend, the place was rather crowded with a host of people going about their shopping especially with Raya just around the corner. Now, as I was passing the toiletries section, there was this rather harried looking man screaming at one of his kids. You moms out there know how it is when you bring kids shopping, ya? They never fail to get on your nerves!

Out of curiosity, I looked in his direction and was flabbergasted when I saw not one, not two, not three, not even four kids with him, but nine! Yes, nine children all clinging to him and his wife with some of them running around driving him up the wall. I stood there stunned for a minute or two and stared at him and his nine children.

I mean I've seen big families before but not one with nine kids. I have two and like I said, it's already hard trying to take care of them and yet he has nine! How in heavens name does he manage? Imagine his expenses for the entire month. I'm still stunned just thinking about it.

Having eleven people in the family, including him and his wife must take a huge toll on him. And judging by the harried look he has, I'm sure it's pretty stressful too. How does he afford to feed them all and provide a roof over his head? To upkeep a family like that, you've got to be earning loads of money and not to be judgmental or anything, but he didn't look like a filthy rich man.

Well, you can't judge a person by their looks alone, maybe he has a huge fortune stashed away. If he doesn't maybe he should look for some good credit cards offers, compare credit cards and get one of those Instant Approval Credit Card. I'm sure that would help a lot in maintaining a huge family. It wouldn't be all that hard, cos there's so many of those credit card people around the mall with their credit card applications trying to get people to sign up with them. Some of them even offer bad credit credit cards for those with a history of bad credit.

I'm still amazed how he does it. I guess if you're a parent, it doesn't matter how many kids you have, you'll almost always find a way to make sure you're able to provide for your family. We had eight (grandma included) in our family and we were not at all rich back then but somehow my parents always provided for us. Don't ask me how they did it but they did. So I guess I shouldn't be surprised with the nine kids this guy has.

But then I can imagine the headache he probably has trying to keep them in check at home. My two boys already drive me up the wall half the time. I suppose when they all finally grow up, it will all be worthwhile cos I'm sure the kids would in turn repay the effort and hardships the parents went through for them.
