LOL...the zoo! @ArraDreaming .
Well can't really blame them if community-style living is all they know. In a way, many countries still have this type of living, and hence they see having 1 or 2 children as 'weird'.
Community living has its benefits. Relieves pressure off the parents. The community work together to bring up the children as their own.

Yeah for sure it’s pretty common in my culture to look after everyone’s kids, I guess my partner and I operate with just our little bubble and that’s what works for us @tyme I’m also not interested in having a dozen children so that’s probably one of my reasons where my parents and I are different hahaha

It seems like a traditional/cultural thing @ArraDreaming . There's no right or wrong. I'd probably have a soccer team of kids if I was brought up in another country.

@tyme Yeah except in this case you have to actually be able to look after the million children you have rather than be welfare dependent crackheads who’s kids end up in a system which is almost worse for them and then they end up also being welfare dependent crack heads who also can’t look after their own kids, (not me other questionable siblings) see what I mean? Oh and not to mention that they cause all this and then die of the consequences of their own actions like lighting a house on fire then walking away

Actually, @ArraDreaming - I understand the essence of what you are saying.
I hope I haven't upset you by raising it in the first place. My sincere apologies if I've triggered you.
I'm happy to move onto something else.
Otherwise I'm also happy to catch up tomorrow 🙂
