In the not to distant past, any farmer or "worker of the land" would typically have a large family for this exact reason!
They probably needed more hands to tend to the land and thus the more kids the more the family business could likely flourish.
It seems that It's more so in the modern day, since city style living where costs are so freakin high and ppl spending all of their time away from family working have this 1 or 2 hatchlings mentality. TBH, more than a couple is probably going to be financial and mental suicide!
I loved this line "..Then sometimes you wind up with crews of supposed "adults" who are basically whiny overgrown children throwing fits and hoping to spend their whole shift outside on a "cigarette break" texting their girlfriend and chain-smoking."
bursted out laughing my man!
You're definitely doing something absolutely invaluable for your spawn.
Thanks for that! I'm glad that you could laugh at that part!
