  1. I don’t think anyone has a right to give advice to Chad and Erin about having more children.
    It is up to them and God to decide. If it really upset Chad as much as he said it did to see Erin so sick, he would use the common sense God gave him and say absolutely not any more children. Common Sense people. That would be the end of the debate.
