It's their lives, and as long as the kids are polite, clean, well fed, and don't start a cult, why should anyone judge them, lest ye be judged, eh?

Exactly. Like I said it's not for me. But as far as I can tell they're taking care of themselves. And one of their TV shows showed them going to some sort of homeschooling convention so there was social ineraction with kids their own ages (of course with the same beliefs) so they're not living in some sort of concentration camp.

I can't imagine what having 17 children does to ones body. I know it's why women used to die young they'd just finally give out.
