How many children is too many?

There is a family here who home school their three children. Once a week I've been joining them and teaching a science lesson. This week we were sitting around the table chatting and the question of how many children they wanted came up - I have no idea how ... wasn't me!! 

Anyway Ben, (who reminds me of my nephew of the same name,) says "When I was younger I wanted to have eight children. But now, considering rationally, I'm not sure I could bear even five." He's eleven!!!

It took me a good five minutes to stop laughing.
