Could You Afford To Have 11 Kids? | Britain's Biggest Families | Origin

Raising and educating your child can often be challenging for both the child and the parent. But how do the biggest families handle educating and raising so many kids? On this week’s episode we see how Britain’s supersize families handle education and planning family outings; The Salim’s 11 kids and the Sullivan’s soon to be 12. What are all the problems that come with these day to day tasks for huge families and what tricks do they have to manage it all? In the Salims’ Rochdale home, ex-teacher Mohammed wants to instil a love of education in his children. But with no routine and non-existent bedtimes, the kids are the rulers of the house. Despite the chaos, seventeen year-old daughter Maryam knuckles down to study for her A-levels whilst supervising the homework for all her younger brothers and sisters. But she fears that just like her unemployed dad with 7 degrees, doing well in school might still not leave her with good options in life. So Mohamed is taking the kids on a trip to the Manchester Science Museum to try and pass on his own love of education to his many children, but even with a mini bus and enough sandwiches to feed an army, can he keep his pack of wild youngsters under control and still teach them something? In Kent, the Sullivans take a very different approach to discipline with their children. Tanya and Mike home-school many of their eleven children and believe routine creates order. They want to protect their large brood from the negative sides of society and dream of one day moving their supersized family to a remote part of Ireland where they plan to live self-sufficiently. But with this remote lifestyle, Tanya and Mike realise that their kids need time away from them to socialise with other children their age. Taking the kids to Boys Brigade and Girls Brigade is their solution, but doing this for so many kids is no easy feat, with transport and supervision requiring their own unique solutions. Nothing these parents can’t handle with their military style of discipline. But with Tanya expecting her 12th baby any day how can they keep up their plans to be self-sufficient whilst still caring for so many children? #BritainsBiggestFamilies #BiggestFamily #16KidsAndCounting Subscribe for more: https://bit.ly/3oNs1Lv Watch More Below Full Documentaries: https://bit.ly/3r0BGBD NEW On Origin: https://bit.ly/37dq4UC Pregnancy Timelapses: https://bit.ly/3r389ap The Biggest Families: https://bit.ly/2VXXkGJ Parenting Documentaries: https://bit.ly/3m10TpX
