I'm a mum-of-11 & trolls say I have a breeding kink to have this many – they asked if we knew what birth control was
Plus, what Karissa says when people ask if her kids came from four dads LABOUR OF LOVE I'm a mum-of-11 & trolls say I have a breeding kink to have this many – they asked if we knew what birth control was A MUM-of-11 has revealed how trolls have rudely told her she must have a 'breeding kink' to have so many kids. Karissa Collins, 40, who is pregnant with her 12th baby, shared how haters have also asked if she is aware of birth control. 4 Karissa and Mandrae Collins, who have 11 kids, have shared comments they have received as parents Credit: tiktok/@thecollinskids/ 4 The couple shrug off any rude comments they are given Credit: tiktok/@thecollinskids/ However, US-based Karissa and husband Manrdrae Cardell Collins, insist they love their bumper brood and ignore any negative comments they get. On her TikTok account, @thecollinskids, Karissa showed each child and the comments people said after they had each one. This showed that you can never please everyone no matter how many kids you decide to have. After they had their first baby - a girl - they were asked if they would try for a boy. The couple then got a boy and people asked them if they would then stop having kids as they had one of each. After their third child, they were asked 'have you heard of birth control', with people telling them 'your hands are too full' following their fourth. She previously revealed she doesn't use contraception, which isn't a surprise given her large family. The busy mum explained: 'No we don't do condoms, pulling out, spousal denial, tracking days, or individual pleasure. 'We let God give freely and we receive it with joy.' Other comments they have received after each child include 'that's a lot of weddings to pay for', 'you better stop, your body is failing', 'you need a tv' and 'bro can't pull out of a driveway.' Millie Radford sparks concern of the family feud reigniting as she says she wants to go 'home' during Florida holiday When they gave birth to their latest child, number 11, people said 'she has a breeding kink'. Thankfully Karissa saw the comical side of the comments, and said 'people are funny.' Karissa first became a mum at the age of 25, and has subsequently been pregnant when she was 27, 28, 29, 31, 32, 34, 35, 36, 39 and 40. Alongside being pregnant, the Christian mum also homeschools her kids, while husband Manrdrae works in the auto finance industry. Last month, she surprised people by announcing she was pregnant just eight months after giving birth. 4 Karissa Collins has 11 kids but is pregnant once more Credit: Instagram/thecollinskidsfamily She previously hit back at people who say her kids must have come from four different dads. Karissa insists she's never even kissed anyone other than Manrdrae, who she married in 2007. The mum said: 'Nope just one dad here! 'Yes they're all ours. All 12 of them! 'They all came out of my body and were created with my first and only boyfriend. 'After we got married of course. I can't believe we will have been married 18 years on the 23rd.' As well as not dating anyone else, Karissa said she's never smoked, drank alcohol, sworn, drank coffee, or had a C-section with her babies. In response to the rude remarks, Karissa beamed: 'Guess what! I saved myself for marriage. 'Not sure how that's disgusting or confusing. Let's normalise couples raising children in loving families.' 4 Karissa insists she's only ever had one boyfriend, her husband Manrdrae Credit: tiktok/@thecollinskids Tackling criticism The mum-of-11 said she doesn't read cruel comments on blogs or social media about her family. She explained: 'Yes I know the hate is there. 'Yes I know the haters make up lies daily and want my family destroyed. 'Yes I know everyone thinks they know me from some 1 min videos. 'Yes we all parent different. Yes we all have different belief systems. 'My page is for mamas that want to seek God and raise families for him. I'm well aware that's few and far between. 'I'm not here to grow a following but rather to challenge your thinking and push you to greatness. To make you smile and make you laugh. They all came out of my body and were created with my first and only boyfriend Karissa Collins 'To bring community together and have a safe place to trust God. 'To show you that all things are possible through Christ. 'To encourage you that his ways are better. And to remind you that we're all human and doing our best.' 'He's my first and only. And we are free to enjoy each other in a loving and holy marriage. 'Children are the blessing that comes out of it. God's plan for marriage and reproducing is so perfect.'
