Managing a large family is a challenge, especially in today's 2-kid-per-household world. But what if your family equals TWO large families: say 8, or 10, or 15 children? Having a mega-family poses particular challenges that even "small" large families don't encounter, including travel in an extended-size van, serious household space issues, dealing with vast age differences, and many more. This board is here so mega-families can talk about the things that are unique to larger than large family life. Any mega-family, be it through birth, adoption, or blending, is invited to join!
