Mum's Life

Video sums up why one mum has 'so many kids' and we're laughing too hard

Have you ever been stopped by a stranger who asks: "Why do you have so many kids?"

How have you felt in this instance? Insulted? Confused? 

Or have you simply answered, got on with your day and never given the question a second thought?

Well, Jenny Evans has been asked the same question over and over, and quite frankly she's tired of answering. 

The mum-of-six is constantly asked why she has 'so many kids', finally deciding to answer the question in a video posted to Unremarkable Files

And to be fair to Jenny, she has some pretty good reasons as to her expansive brood: "I'm part of this new government pilot programme called 'No Egg Left Behind'."

"I just like having all my stuff broken. The tax deductions. It's fun, it's like living in a frat house."

"I like to answer lots of nosy questions while I'm trying to grocery shop."

Mum even reveals that when she kept her plants alive she had assumed having six children would be the next logical step for her, especially after she accidently switched her birth control pills with pop rocks!

But Jenny has some pretty epic long term plans too: "The kids are my retirement plan. They're gonna take care of me."

"I'm just trying to deplete the earth of all it's natural resources obviously. […] Ever since I was little, I dreamed of being a bus driver when I grew up," added the mum-of-six. 

From pregnancy clothing to building a basketball team, there's no reason why this mum should even stop at six, and if you have a 'large' family, you NEED to watch the hilarious clip. 

Our favourite line is at the end, you go Jenny!
