What kills me is that perfectly lovely young women will fight one another over this prize. We seriously have to do something to wake young women up. And, as much as I hate to see the abuse of the system, it is the future or these babies that worries me the most. Where is Bob Barker when we need him?

I'm wondering how many STD's this bunch has? I mean if he's managed to make at least 21 kids without even a case of mono then I'd say his chances of winning the lotto are better than average.

Unfortunately, this behavior is common in certain segments of our society. This guy made the news because the numbers were so high but there is an 'underclass' in this country where illegitimacy, teen pregnancy and STD's are epidemic. Its a real problem and I'm not sure what can be done about it. Perhaps there is nothing that can be done.

Once gay marriage becomes the norm, polygamy will become the norm and 21 kids will be the norm.

I'm still trying to figure out how that conversation went.

"So tell me a little about yourself"

"Well I have 18 kids now, 2 more on the way later this month."

Well with 21 kids and a minimum wage job, I think it's safe to assume that the taxpayers are already taking care of his kids.

Yeah but if you lock him up then you're taking care of him too. Plus eliminating the slight possibility of him getting either a second job or a better paying one. I've always thought locking men up for child support is ineffective because no one wins in the end, if they're going to lock them up it should at least be on the work release program so there could be some money made. Make him pick trash up off the highway or pick up all those tire treads on the interstate. Horrible hard labor for less than minimum wage when they don't get any of the money might inspire them to do a little better than a night or two in the county.

See what happens when straights are allowed to monopolize marriage?

I guarentee no gay man/woman would have 21 illegitimate kids.
