So if you want to limit the reproduction don`t allow people with such lifestyles to immigrate to your country

I have seen this many times. A woman who reaches maturity with no personal goals, meets a man who thinks the measure of his sperm is the measure of his self-worth. They get married and start having kids. Soon the woman is addicted to the attention she gets while pregnant and the attention she gets for being the mother of such a hugn brood. Soon the older kids are raising the younger kids and mom and dad are free to perpetuate their hobby.

This is a textbook dysfunctional family. Everyone is being affected by mom''s addiction just as surely as if she were an alcoholic.

18 children is a completely irresponsible. We can not take care of all the humans on the planet now... People need to smarten up and realize this is not a positive thing

The Romanians are Orthodox Christians so they can`t be brainwashed by the Vatican. And everybody can have as many children as he wants

Its ironic that an earlier story on CBSnews.com talked about contraception advocates in the Catholic church.

One can assume that this couple is Catholic by the way they describe God and the shear amount of children they have.

How about family photos? Quick!... Someone get a wide-angle lens for the camera!

Well, at least SOMEBODY has a hobby! -- Must keep her pretty busy, to keep coughing them out like that. -- When DOES she get time to primp, and put makeup on? -- Some folks just get more than they need, and some do not get any. -- Nothing is fair. -- Are they finished yet?

In a world where we are suppose to be water rationing due to not enough rain, driving hybrids because of skyrocketing fuel, recycle everything, and we have families like this whom think this is so cute and funny? An entire subdivision will need to be built for the continuation of this selfish family! How do you even get to know your children when we are suppose to sleep 7-8 hours a day?

What about the impact that 18 kids will have on the environment? Does anyone care about that?

All I can say is "Dang!!" The Duggars are getting a run for their money... er kids I guess as the case may be. However, they are being financed by TLC so they can video the religious nuts in their natural habitat.

Yet another couple taking the passage from the bible "...be fruitful and multiply..." literally!

Oh how dangerous religion can be, (any religion), without a proper education!
