Reply #36: Oh Give Me A Break

Anyone who watches that family and thinks "hey that seems like a great idea" either already has a ton of kids, or has none and will change their tune after 1 or 2.

I'm resource consious, but my wife is pregnant with our third, even though we used birth control. We're pro-choice but we don't personally believe in abortion, just in every woman's individual reproductive rights. We didn't mean to have a third child, two was plenty, but we'll be more than happy to welcome a third into our home. This doesn't make us unreasonable or outragous or irresponsible. Shit happens.

To lump us in with people who have gone out of their way to pump out 18 kids, simply because our birth control failed us is kind of lame, imho.
