Mimba yake ya 17 iliharibika ikiwa imeishakuwa kubwa, walimzika mtoto na kila mwaka humpelekea zawadi kwenye kaburi lake na huwa wanasafiri na picha yake kila wakisafiri. Bado wanamuhesabu kama mwanafamilia (asingehesabiwa wangesema wana watoto 21 tu).

Unaambiwa kelele za watoto wakiwa wanacheza nje ya nyumba ni kama shule wakati wa break.

Kuna kiasi fulani cha pesa huwa wanapewa na serikali kama familia zingine zote huko Uingereza wanazopewa kulingana na idadi ya watoto (child benefits).
Wanakwambia watu wanafikiri wao wanazaa tu kwakuwa ni wavivu na wanategemea misaada lakini wao wana familia kubwa kwasababu wanapenda kuwa na familia kubwa na wanafanya kazi kwa bidii na wala hawategemei misaada ya watu wasiojiweza.
Reality shows, interviews wanazopata na YouTube channel yao zitakuwa zimewasaidia ku boost maisha. Kwakweli ukiwaangalia huwezi kusema ni "masikini".
