  • Large Families

    I would just like to address the academic aspect of large families. I am one of 5 children, and we have all been on honor roll throughout our academic careers.

    Please read on with my second reply before judging me. I'm not stupid. I've educated myself. I came from a single-parent/divorced home. I am a divorcee, myself. 1st of all . . . be careful.
