Hey, chatty believe me I'm impressed. A home with 9 bathrooms..sounds like a big family that does not have typical in terms of accommodations for most big families worldwide. smile

We had 1 bathroom for 8 people for lst 20 years of life.
I'm sure they are ok and normal like us, not superhuman..but tv only shows 1 slice of a family's life, not the whole lifecycle of the family..the good and not-so-good.

Like probably a few other BWMS members, I come from an extended family of big families. My mother came from a family of 8 children. Then a set of cousins in my generation, 7 kids...and all from same mother. And so on. The tree branches are starting to look like clumps of bushes. laugh

One great thing though...a big family..provides tremendous pyschological cushion for any family members at any time, who might be on the verge of feeling lonely in this world or feel they are losing perspective in their solo existence. One is comforted that there IS an automatic birth network of people who want to know about your existence. At least in my family.
