My wife looks and feels fantastic after having 4 children. How do thesesleftists get away with writing she-it’s like this??????
No kidding.
My mother died in a car crash (with me in it) when I was six. Father remarried, had two kids with the step-monster. Older sister and I quckly became obkects to keep in the background and under tight control. My sister got knocked up while in H.S. and left home early. I joined the USMC two weeks after H.S. We three brothers never had children with our wives.
I attribute that to an unpleasant memory of childhood, not something we looked forward to re-creating for ourselves.
I suspect your childhood has a lot to do with raising a family. It was good, you want to have it again with your own kids.
Fake study...junk research...
Probably taking good supplements would do wonders. Babies can drain the mom of necessary minerals, etc. Many babies in a row may start to drain a mom even more. Again, she needs to supplement. intelligently.
I’ve seen statistics that show rates of cancer and heart disease decline after a woman has had four children. There was nothing regarding age of death, though.
My great grandmother died instantly of a heart attack at age 53, she had seven children and in pictures looked far older than she was around age 50.
My mom (her granddaughter) had a massive heart attack at age 51, miraculously survived and is still alive 16 years later-praise the Lord. She’s always looked young for her age and had two children, adopted another. Still had a heart attack at young age but didn’t die.
Despite my best efforts, I seem to be following in their cardiovascular footsteps. At 43 I am a mother of six and my blood pressure inexplicably shot up two years ago. People (including my kids’ friends) say I look young so who knows-at least I probably don’t look old for my age despite having a lot of kids.
Biggest difference between my mom and her grandma and myself is I’m more trim than they were-better eating habits, though they were by no means “fat”. I guess we will see if many children with a better diet give me a better (no young heart attack)or worse (dying from a young heart attack like my great grandma) outcome than my mom.
Large families can be done badly or well.
Small families and even those with just one child can be done badly or well.
My mom had seven children. Lived to be 93 - and she smoked.
Can we start a new term (if it is not already known)? Instead of Fake News can we use the term Fake Science?
These liberals just love to hide behind the use of ‘science’ for all kinds of reasons. Of course, what they consider science is really just them making stuff up (like the liberal media does for news) and it is all just fake and made up science.
This just simple screams “Fake Science”.
JoMa
Another subjective feminist study. Notice that they didn’t try lifespans instead of photos and other skewing methods.
Wrong.
Large families cannot be done well.
Dysfunction is inherent in the structure. Parents sacrifice some children, so that they the parent will have somebody to care for them. But the sacrificed child is harmed. That is nature’s way.
Children raising children is abuse. Nobody, no adult to speak up for the sacrficed or scapegoated child.
An adult is speaking up now and you parents of large families HATE it! You the truth when it presented.
Adopt out some of children, quit being selfish, so they have a chance with an actual adult and not children caretakers. Hurts don’t it.
You hate the truth when it is presented clearly.
>Children raising children is abuse. Nobody, no adult to speak up for the sacrficed or scapegoated child.
Growing in my small family, my sister used to make up kinds of lies about me and my parents never failed to believe her and punish me. Frustrated me to no end and I was always angry about my treatment. I had a rough childhood. Small families, large families life isn’t fair or easy.
NEGLECT and ABUSE are both sides of the same coin. One is ommission, the other commission.
Your mother did not raise each and every one of you. Birth order determines quality. And if a mother has 10 children, each receives an average of 1/10 of a functional family. And that 1/10th is not distributed well, so some get 1/50th the language dialog of an adult.
A proud parent, to save face, always discusses the success story child, like the one studying medicine. Smart questioners though bypass and immediately ask about the overlooked or abandoned children.
The parent simply excuses and says it was the neglected child’s fault for his addictions, prison or homelessness.
Bovine Scatology!
The parent of a large family CAN NEVER give the one thing to their child, he wants the most.
Conversation.
The parent cannot give that which small families can easily give.
The parent of a large family can only give one thing to their child.
Neglect.
So adopt some out OR allow some children to spend plenty of time with relatives Grandparents, Uncles, Aunts and let the child live there most of the time with an adult.
so this study they talk about is pure bunco...imo..
Patently obvious. Kids are murder.
Well, women with kids age faster right up until the ones who aborted their kids die from breast cancer.
It would appear that your grandmother —> mother —> you heart attack thing is genetic.
For myself, it goes like this. My father’s father died at 74, my father died at 74....and were I a betting man, I will kick off at that same age.
Genetics can be ruthless.
My mom is still alive at 67. Her dad (son of grandma who died at 53) lived to 91 so even though he had the same cardiovascular issues, no heart attack-but was on bp meds early, had stroke in his 80’s.
Even though I’m on bp meds, I’m hoping that following a radically different diet makes a difference. Other than the high blood pressure, I take after my dad in many ways. Hoping his genes make a difference!
Still-ever since I hit my late thirties I’ve had a morbid count down to age 51...thinking of how my youngest will be only 12, my oldest will be only 26...what if?? I turn 44 next month so it’s creeping up. Trouble is that every doc dismisses my fears. I can only guess that it’s because I’m slim? Only overweight people get clogged arteries? It’s high levels of lipoprotein a that docs think caused my mom’s heart attack, it’s genetic, but no doc will order a test for me.
I had 5 aunts, my mom was my grandmother’s 6th daughter and next to youngest, along with 2 boys...8 in all. All of them had 4+ children, all lived into their late 80-90’s. Besides having 8 children she worked in a shirt factory, as granddad had Black Lung and over saw the children who did all the house and ‘truck’ garden work. She cooked 2 meals a day, canned, all the other work the 8 children couldn’t do. NO WELFARE BACK THEN, certainly little to no medical care. They went through the Great Depression.
This is the CRAP that was just published by NPR.
Maternal Death rates From reading the article the blame falls on the Malpractice Doctors. These health conditions were preventable IF you got the right doctor. Nor are they new or rare. They have been around since women first started having babies.

I’ve had 4 and I turn 70 this next August. I’m the eldest of 4, would have been 6 if mom had not miscarried 2.
