There's a long waiting list for Habitat for Humanity homes in our area. Here, when a family gets a Habitat for Humanity home, it's kept immaculately, inside and out.

It's unbelievable these people are getting a second chance. They don't deserve it.

Can someone explain how they can have 14 children and they are living "under one roof" the oldest being 14 yet they have been staying temporarily with the "third oldest son". (I am left to believe he has his own place). Are there really more that 14? Am I misunderstanding something?

Same thing here. Habitat also works with home owners to teach them minor home repair things such as caulking, filing drywall holes, etc.

You are right they don't deserve it. There is no excuse with this many children and the father at home that this house could not be kept in immaculate condition. The older children could do everyday chores and the father could have made sure any damage done was repaired.
