My ex's best friend is one of.. 11? 12? I forgot. Probably more by now. Both parents of that family are weird but as far as I can tell it's mostly the mom who wants more but... I'm not entirely sure if she actually wants more children or she just likes getting parental pay which is 18 months in this country. On 12 kids that's 18 years that she hasn't had to go to work. Don't think the woman in the picture got 18 months
Not sure if she can stay employed so long. I am not sure if you can Irish twins your parental leave indefinitely,
I couldn't imagine an employer paying her for 18 years of parental leave.
In Germany parental leave is paid by the state and you can receive it instead of unemployment money. Probably true for other countries as well.
Nice, sounds good.
