I belong to a large family as well. 10 brothers and sisters. Questions I was mostly asked while growing up:
1. How do you all use the bathroom at the same time (we had two).
2. Where do you all sleep (we had 6 bedrooms)
3. Same parents (yes)
However, the friends I grew up with loved coming over our house. Our house was the meeting house before school and after school. Friends always thought that our house was always filled with fun and laughter. My parents are good parents and are still living today, 71 years old. None of my sibling have died yet and we are all healthy, strong, and good people.

1) Why people are so rude is because they don't have a life at all
2) They have to create chaos for other people because they live it
3) They can't stand to see other happy people
4) Furthermore, mental people never ever did mind their own business to begin with so this how they live not us
My final analysis is that don't even bother to try and figure out these strange species because they are very differerent. Are they ever weird because why should you be the center of their universe. You are certainly blessed with a wonderful husband and eight children!
Like the saying goes, those busy tongues must find something to do.

People are rude because they assume things. Society today is not at its best i.e. the same father situation! Some may also be jealous that you have built a solid fondation. Sounds like a family i would like to raise some day, but I am only on number one. It is just human nature to be rude today, children are not taught morals or good behaviors often. God bless you and your family.

I too come from a large bended family. But, before we were considered white trash, there were 5 originals. My father self employed and we really never had new clothes. But, we never considered ourselves poor. May parents divorced and my father remarried and we added two more. Dad had a millitary background and staying organized was the key. I never minded "taking millitary" showers. I went on to only have two kids but, never complained about our large family! I never wanted for anything growing up. But, I bedlieve that you do need to ignore those who do not understand and assuming is the worse thing! Embrass you family, enjoy your family and feel blessed by them. (personally I think its pretty neat that large families still exsist!)

Ignore those people...they are ignorant. It sounds like you have a wonderful family and I bet the holidays are lots of fun with a large family.

You'll just have to learn to be rude back. Tell them for go take a flying fu*k, or to just simply fu*k off!!
people are this way, because their in high hopes they will find worse skeletons in someone elses closet besides their own.

Don't let it bother you. People who are rude are usually just ignorant. They just don't know any better and never learned manners. Instead of getting angry, try to feel sorry for them. They just can't be happy people - so it really is sad.

Some people just were never taught manners when they were little,and just assume they know everything by looking at somebody!
Just blow it off.
