Some cultures are very gregarious and lively. They like loud music, speak to each other loudly, etc.

Which cultures have you found to be more reserved? Not necessarily cold or rude, just not as loud in public?

    Eight children? Yikes.

    What do people have in mind when they make so many children in today’s age? Can they even afford to give healthy food, good education and some financial help to all these children?

    And most importantly, can they give enough attention, love and care to all the children? Sounds highly unlikely

      That’s the thing sir anjqas:

      We cannot speak for all, because while I can tell you that here in Norway the state will pay in aid for people with lots of children (Especially if neither them or the parents understand the language, something I personally do not like, but accept), there are many other reasons, too

      too many to call them “exceptions”

      You see, Turks that immigrate here in Norway are mostly wealthy, In this case my ex’s husband is a wine taster/sampler, of the kind that can tell you the month, the day, the hour that wine was made, and from where in the world (to the EXACT place, what type of dirt it was grown in, everything) he also imports and exports wine (I don’t know from where, because while I am fan of his profession, I don’t like him for the simple reason that I like his wife)

      As implies, he’s wealthy, very wealthy, he arrives to pick her up in a different (and giant) car every time she’s around

      Oh… And for sake of consistency, none of the children are hers (Jesus… She’s now a Muslim and raising eight kids that aren’t even hers… We spoke about that yesterday, given she’s both my friend and my ex from years ago I can’t help but shake my angry head) I had always assumed she was the mother to a couple at least
