Shortly after dinner, your brain reminds you that you're getting ready to run the final race of the day: the kids' bedtime. Maybe this will sound familiar: you rush to get the kids clean, then you rush to make sure they’re all simultaneously getting dressed, brushing teeth, hanging up towels, and putting away dirty clothes. Then begins the actual bedtime battle: story time, prayers, lights out… lights on again… (repeat), then maybe some thumping or loud whispering. And if you’re lucky, silence comes shortly thereafter. But then someone needs a drink of water. (And then maybe Mommy and Daddy need a drink of something else.) It seems like it never ends. After all, it's a marathon even if you choose to sprint through parts of it. And while this would be busy enough for any family, as we all know when you have a bunch of kids: if there’s drama, it’s multiplied. And then you realize it's only Sunday night, and you have a few more "school nights" ahead of you this week. But take heart: you're not alone.

If you already have a big family, you could write a “pro / con” list in a heartbeat. But an article we came across had a short list like this that was worth poking fun at. There are some valid points that’ll hit home with anyone in our large-family-life shoes, but this list was just so random we thought it would be fun to pick it apart.

“How are we supposed to give all those kids individual attention?” is one of the classic challenges with (or objections to!) a big family. Lance and Bobby walk through a number of things they and their wives have done to help with this problem, but also discuss how it may not be *that* big of an issue to begin with.
