I was the oldest of 11. Some half siblings, some whole, and some step. My mother about killed herself trying to keep everything done, kids fed, clean clothes, meals cooked. I knew I would never want to have her life. I was worn out all during high school doing what had to be done at home. It was all done manually but we did have washing machine and dryer. Plus we had a big garden and all the canning and that came with it.
