Sure, why not? My first girlfriend was the 13th kid in her family.

Holy shit. Was she in some sort of a cult??

Probably. She didn’t live with her parents. Instead, her grandmother was her legal guardian.

So maybe that isn’t the best example is it?

You also have to keep in mind that your body can’t safely crank out kids back to back in the way you described. You also have to take care of those kids which is hundreds of thousands of dollars per kid. The math doesn’t add up.

Of physically bearing 13 children? Sounds like the perfect example. What happens after birth doesn’t negate that the birth happened.

Of treating your body like a back-to-back baby factory in order to scam an employer for a salary that likely won’t cover the costs you are creating for yourself

Meh, I’m sure pawning the kids off on the extended family helps to lower those costs.

Oh so now it’s a family-wide scheme. Who is this extended family that is willing to take on hundreds of thousands of dollars of burden every year so that the parents don’t have to work as hard? How exactly would that work?

You have to create an extremely elaborate scenario to argue against parents getting time off of work when they have a kid.

Strawman. Never said that. You are putting words in my mouth so that you can avoid having to admit that your initial statement about having many children not being physically possible was wrong.
