What I think is funny is that we do this thread every, oh, say, nine months or so.

Because that's how often Mrs. D pops out another one.

Anyone that names their kids all with the same first letter, especially if the letter is the father's initial or something (Roger Clemens naming all his kids K-something) I find somewhat disturbing.
I have no problem with people having large families - I would suggest we limit federal tax deductions to four kids max though.

Do you find it disturbing when people name their kids Anfernee or Ny'Quell or Tom?

More power to 'em. If the kids grow up to be productive citizens, ie. not drains on the system, that's great.

Wonder how many kids Bobby and Ethel Kennedy would have wound up with if he hadn't been plugged while No. 11 was still in the oven.

why is this "not right?"

It's not right because merely bringing one child into the world is an immensely selfish act. You may (or may not) be a competent adult. There is no guarantee that the child will value his or her life or be able to reach whatever state of well-being you've achieved. There is a chance that you've created someone who will live their life in misery. And even a chance is enough to make it not right.

I can think of several more selfish acts than bringing a baby into this world.

And SC, I think it was Stan who let him in the backdoor.

Crawled in the basement window and somehow managed to make it upstairs.
