      Happy family~

      Baker is a baseball coach, and Mrs. Baker is a housewife and writer. They have raised twelve children in total. I can’t imagine what I would do if I had so many children... I really like the Baker couple’s way of education, creating a happy and passionate family, and never restraining the children’s nature and creativity force. When Baker got his dream job, the family came to the city home and left the place where these children had not left since they were young. When Mrs. Baker went out,...

      The biggest feeling is funny

      A few days ago, the class of "Modern Family Education" ended. The teacher asked us to choose a movie to write about our feelings. I voted for this movie.

But what is different from other movies is that before the move, this is indeed a very happy big family, but they cherish each other...

      Maybe it's the reason why I dare not have a baby

      At the beginning, there was a desire to watch it, but the more I watched it, the more ideal it became. Maybe the idea of ​​the theme is that the actualization of "a dozen" children is more exaggerated and eye-catching, but what about the actual operation? Let’s not talk about the mother’s physical impact and the family’s asset requirements. The responsibility of raising children is great. You must be responsible for the birth of a life. Not only do you need to "live", but you also need to...
