I wonder if families now are large theses days . it seems a lot of people are having 2 kids

The earths over populated as it is. Nothing wrong with 2 kids. Who can afford these big familes?

Nine including parents. Gotten smaller though that's the hazard of being the youngest in a large-ish family! Was quite a normal size where I came from (Laois), plenty of land to farm :pac:

Same same except from Clare.

6 in my family, 1 brother, 2 sisters, ma, da

but it gets bigger, my dad has 17 brothers and sisters and my mam has 8

which when they all marry and have 4-5 kids, and their kids have now started having kids, it gets pretty big.i have second cousins (cousins kids?) and cousins who were born in America, Australia, England etc.... as a few of my fathers brothers and sisters emigrated.

my dads family fielded a 5 of a senior GAA team at one stage

thats how I got the nickname mousey, because we breed like them

I remember in transition year in one of the crap free classes the teacher handed out an A4 sheet to do a family tree, i had to request a A3 sheet and still ran out of room.
ended up giving up after about 10 minutes

edit forgot to add, im from wicklow
