I'm A Mom Of 10 & Grandma At 36 | MY EXTRAORDINARY FAMILY

INTRODUCING the Couzens Dozen. Ashley and Jerry are parents to ten children; Alexis, 21, Ashlyn, 19, Tre, 18, Ava, 15, Jerzy, 13, Jett, 12, Adayah, 11, Aila, nine, Jrue, two, and Amora, one. Ashley said: “We're very close as a family. They all support each other - from the oldest to the youngest.” The family love playing sports together including basketball and football and attend each other’s games. Ashley and Jerry then became grandparents at the age of 36 and 38 respectively, as their eldest daughter Alexis gave birth to her son Kash who is now two years old. Ashley said: “We've definitely received some judgement about our daughter having her son, basically saying ‘you're just repeating the cycle’, ‘you had her at 17, she was a teen mom… What kind of example are you setting for her?’” They’ve also received judgement about the size of their family, questioning how they afford it and if Jerry is the father of all ten children. But the family does not let the negativity bother them. Ashley said: “This is my normal. All I know is chaos and shenanigans.”

Nice house? check. Clean house? check. Well behaved kids? check. Clean kids? check. Food on the table? Check. Both Parents in house? check. These parents are doing everything right, most people can't even manage that with 1 child! They deserve all the praise!

Their baby boy Jrue is so adorable!! He reminds me of the little brother that played on Eves Bayou

[pauldaniel]

This woman produces beautiful children! I pray that out of this family, they produce one lawyer, one doctor, an engineer, one city developer, an architect, a farmer, a pharmacist, a politician, a business mogul, a banker and a preacher. May they own corporately at least 1500 acres of land for each family members and may they build a city with their Family Name

[Xskrym]

I have uncles in polygamous marriages, with several dozen kids each. The Couzens are a quality, happy, healthy and loving family!

[Belovedselah]

Nothing is better than family to love on and spend quality time with. They are rich in love and support.

[dragsterified]

As a childfree person if someone can happily take care of a large family, the more power to them! Families come in all shapes and sizes.

[piikapoka]

I'm one out of 10 kids. My parents are still together. The older I get, the more children I want. I was so blessed to grow up in a big family.
