How to tell Mom not to get pregnant again?

Question

Mom, 52, just had four tots. I'm 29, my sisters are 27 and 26 and 14, and we've got three 2 year olds strutting around the house. Finally, she had one new one last month.

But somehow, between last month and today, she has managed to get pregnant... yet again. I don't know what she's up to! This must be some kind of scheme because I'm going to have children when I get married this year and she'll be with my wife in the hospital bed.

Plus, she said she had four other children she didn't tell us about with another man besides Dad. So I've got too many brothers and sisters.

I remember when Lizzy, my youngest sister, stole my fruit cup at the age of 4, but now having four tots stealing my fruit cup!?!

Should I say: "Hey, Mom...um, did you notice Shoppers is having a sale on condoms and sponges. I don't know what you use, but you should buy them cheap while you can."

Mom definitely sounds like she is not going to stop having children until she absolutely can't. And she can't take care of them all-- half of them are down at my Grandma's, but how the h**l is she going to look after these infant children for God knows how long!

Jesus Christ, Mom! Ugh, no wonder Dad brings home $12/hour from his "job". Pretty soon I may have to provide for them. Help!

Answer 1

I don't agree with her practices, but since the babies are here or on the way, I guess you have to stand by her as much as possible.  

Answer 2

Answer 3

She can still have babies at 52?Waw my mom is 52.....geez!

Answer 4

Get some birth control pills from your wife and put your mom on the pill.  Put it in her tea in the mornings or something. What she don't know wont matter.  For variety you could add tuinal or something and put her to sleep for a week.   come to think of it you could try the same thing on the toddlers.

Answer 5

would she like to adopt three?

Answer 6

Simple way of telling your mom. Mom, we dun want more brothers or sisters,Once you die, it will be our responsibility to take care of them! And we will be having our own kids! How will it be easy for us to take care of so many children?!What if we do not have proper income to take care of everyone?We cant leave them starving! So mom pls understand us n our problems.

Hope this helps you.

Answer 7

Your mom is being foolish. She already has too much on her plate, and it would be dangerous for her to be trying to conceive at this point in her life.
