Plus a single man witj 6 kids isn’t necessarily desired by women unless he’s rich….which he is not. He’s stuck with that lady either way.

Although in fairness that show is edited to really intensify the drama lol, he did come across amazing in this though! The full episode should still be on KZread I only seen it recently, pretty sure I could find the link for it if anyone is interested! :)

This has made me think. I really feel for all the children. No way should they be attacked, either verbal or physical, for being a member of a large family. I really felt for the single mum's eldest daughter, Georgia (I think her name was). When she said she felt like the child's mother, it broke me. Wishing all families the very best in 2024 and congratulations on the nuptials!

Such beautiful families with beautiful children. Better than money!

We knew Roy Han when he was small, and lived in Aberdeenshire. His father has a big law firm now. They used to live on a farm in Blamedie called Eggie Farm, and the father - George Han, used to fix my Dad's car, so we went out there a few times. I remember they had chickens and a goat, and the goat got loose (probably due to us teasing it) it started eating all the strawberries. We had such fun with Nathan, Roy, Virginia and I think there was another one on the way, before George finished at University, and the family moved back down to Newcastle. It is good to see Roy again, as an adult. Hoping Julie and George are doing well, along with all their grown up children.

May God bless these families, there is just so much love going around, may it just go from strength to strength.

Quite frankly, it's no-one else's business how many children people have, as long as they have the means to support them all. They make the decision that family is more important than material things. All these families are lovely people, I applaud their courage.

Such lovely stories. Mother of 14 is one very brave mother. She deserves an Oscar for best mother. The other couole were the sweetest story of love, courage and devotion. For a runaway, he's done himself proud. I hope baby 13 will one day be reunited with his big beautiful family. Congratulations to single mum of 14, and the other parentsl for showing us the true meaning of family. 🎉

I feel for the second family because of so much prejudice. Also the kids from the first family aren't to blame for their parents mistakes, especially Georgina that is growing up too soon. People should have some comun sense. I am Portuguese, we have more seniors than kids. I'm a teacher and don't tolerate that kind of bullying.

I have to agree. In that situation, she still wants more children. We all want things we can’t afford. Most of us just do without.

I believe people should definitely be permitted to have as many children as they are blessed to have. Having said that the mom going out dressed up while her teenage daughter babysits was a bit much😳. Give the young girl a chance .

The Jo lady is so irresponsible. Atleast all the other big families have responsible hardworking parents. She is a single mom, poor, have her kids being bullied, but all she’s hyper fixated on is having a man that’ll give her a 15th baby. Leaving the parenting to her young daughter.

Wishing every child and adult all the very best. You are all beautiful.

I would have loved to have had lots of children. All these families are beautiful. ❤

What a beautiful family and a beautiful wedding so much love, How lucky are they to have everything in the world?❤

Why would anyone hate them, why would anyone hate another human being. Hate destroys , love conquers 🙏🙏🙏

She doesn’t deserve to be a second mum, it isn’t fair

She’s got gorgeous eyes. These families are amazing. Look at their love and how they keep their houses so nice and tidy. These are lucky children

To say any family " is the most hated big family" is unconscionable ! It has been getting away from family, family values, taking care of each other, sharing, enjoying the simple things in life...that has brought this world a lot of grief with the type of people it has perpetuated!

I love seeing how my love exists within each household. My dad is from England, and his parents were from Scotland. My mother is African American. It was at some point in high school, when some of my cheerleading peers took note of how awkwardly I looked when I went in for a hug (we had to hug 2-3 football players each week during football season to drop off their good luck signs we designed). I was awkward because I really had not been used to any form of physical contact and affection from my family. And the same is true for other ways family extend their love toward one another. Now, my mother told me the family is the way it is because British people aren’t affectionate, don’t communicate, etc. And for a long time I really believed that. However, every time I see a British family in a documentary, I see unquestionable expressions of love, adoration, gratitude, and a longing to maintain closeness when children grow up and leave home. So I am not sure I really buy the idea of it being the norm that Brits are cold and distant. Can any Brits weigh in on this?

@7SevenStars7 Rest assured we are not cold, dismissive or uncaring, we might appear so at a first introduction, beyond that not so. I believe the older generation might be stand offish, it was how they were brought up. If a problem arises we deal with it, we don't have time for the drama😊

The only one I would make a comment to is the mother that said her new boyfriend got her pregnant, she knows how to prevent pregnancy and should have taken measures to prevent it until she is able to work a little, and I don't understand why neither one of them didn't use some sort of birth control, just not responsible for either adult.

Wait, she didn’t make 14 kids alone!!! Here there’s a thing called CHILD SUPPORT and most things the state provides the family for free, he’s required to pay all or a portion back! What is it with Brits and letting deadbeat dad’s shirk any financial responsibility raising their kids just because of a split? It’s still both parents job and responsibility.

Having that many kids is irresponsible and selfish imo. My parents were baby hoarders, I'm one of 9 (they told us they had so many kids because they loved babies and when we grew older they had to replace us with another baby). My dad worked three jobs out of state to provide for us, we only saw him on the weekends so our mom was essentially a single mother. The older girls had to help raise the younger siblings, which put a lot of strain on us as we were children ourselves. My mom lived in survival mode, neither of our parents were consistently emotionally and physically present for us and even tho we had our basic needs provided, food, clothing and shelter, we didn't get our emotional/psychological needs met which scarred us for life. It's not possible to give that many children enough of your time and attention for them to develop into healthy functional adults, there's just no way that's possible, even with two involved parents. Having herds of children also puts a strain on the marriage/relationship, finances (even if you're wealthy), health etc. It goes against nature to raise children on an assembly line, it's not fair to them.

God bless you all. Your Touching story of love, respect and harmony really tugged at my heart strings. I wish you all the best life has to offer. Love from a Blackburn girl who lives in Australia.

I don’t understand why the families are being criticized by others. The children are loved and extremely well behaved.

What beautiful families ! Such hard workers too. I admire them all and wish them the very best !

Grew up poor in a big family. Never knew I was poor until I went off to college. I am far more thankful for my big family and poverty than I would be had ai been given a single sibling and a porsce at 16. Kids are good. Fiances shouldn't be a reason to not raise a family. Really, I can't think of a good reason not to have kids. They're amazing and as long as a parent is willing to provide, it doesn't have a certain income minimum, or lifestyle look.

I love Emma and Lee. Their children are beautiful soul's, theyve clearly been brought up very well.

How can any of these poor kids get individualised time and attention from either parent. Very irresponsible to produce 14 kids in this day and age.

The children look well loved and cared for.

Good lord that lady escaped a 'loud mouth' not the other way around. Newspaper Headlines like that are just unecessary. Why would you demean some innocent childs parent or mother? They looked well cared for

Emma and Lee are lovely I was crying so much , such beautiful kids , as for Georgia I feel for her having to take care while her mum goes out to try find yet another boyfriend 🙄

These parents all really love their kids and the children seem to be healthy and overall happy. There are no things more important in defining a good family than love and care. These kids get that. The parents are providing for the kids as best they can. They may not be in situations we would choose for ourselves. But our business should be on our own lives, not criticizing theirs. It seems the worst challenge these families face comes from outsiders judging them. It is grossly unfair to insult them and simply, not our place to do so.

Well said, exactly what I was going to comment. These parents provide for their children financially, mentally, emotionally, they love and care for every single child, the children are very well cared for in every way, they’re all very well behaved, intelligent, articulate, compassionate, empathetic, kind and well rounded. There are so many parents and children, from much smaller families where so many of these important aspects are missing completely. We should be praising the skills and achievements of the families shown here, not judging them at all. Their dedication and determination should be praised and acknowledged, not judging them on how many children they chose to have, that’s irrelevant and we have no right to judge others the way they are being judged by other members of society. Both the parents and their children are very much an asset to society. People need to get their own ‘house’ in order before criticising and judging others. ❤ Please forgive me for ranting about this but you’ve raised so many good points that people need to think about and I wanted to support what you’ve said. 👏

Children are a blessing from God. To the Watsons, God bless her she has not neglected them after her husband left her, beautiful children. Bless the Hamlin parents, doing a great job. 200 pounds for groceries is excellent budgeting for a family that size. People really need to mind their own business and not make rude comments just because they are a large family. The Hann making beautiful music together. God bless them. God bless all these families. Amen.

These families are truly blessed! They are right, having a large happy family is better than having a pile of disposable cash. Looking forward to seeing how their 12 or 14 children look after their parents once they are grown! I’ve experienced that a large family sharing and caring together will make the kids more likely to look after each other and their parents later in life than a family with few kids who get everything but grow up (spoilt) with disregard for their parents!
