As a parent to five kids (too many, don’t be me) I’d welcome the Wall People over some.of the things I’ve had to deal with. Weird I can deal with, gross on a long term consistent basis drives me nuts.
I had a classmate who was the youngest of 10. Always smelled bad, but otherwise an okay kid. I think the family was poor. Not surprising, having had to feed 12 people. I wonder how many of them have had kids of their own by now and if any chose to have many or none at all.
The were like the quiverfulls but didn’t call themselves that. I can’t remember the name. The parents* believed every child that could be born, should be born. It was their duty.
I knew some Pentecostal families like that. They didn’t call it anything but they definitely believed every child that could be born, should be. Didn’t practice any sort of birth control and had a dozen kids over 20 years.
Yeah, it wasn’t Pentecostal, but had a name. I wish I could remember it. The kids were nice but always were tired and had that look of abuse. I don’t think they were abused like hitting, but they all had to take care of the younger ones or themselves. They were always tired. Funny, but tired.

I knew a large family with 10 kids growing up. The last 4 called themselves the “too manies”.

When 10 cents for a condom is too much, but 18 years is just fine
