What drives these parents to have large families? A love for kids? Determination to rebuild post-Holocaust? Some innate affection for Honda and
Toyota minivans?
My wife and I have two children, an eight-year-old and a ten-year-old. My wife wants to have another child but I think we already have enough work and children - we do not have much time left to our day!
We’re financially strained as it is, and I think it’s irresponsible to add another mouth to feed when you can’t afford it. Are there no limits to the commandment to “be fruitful and multiply”?
