A perennial topic among moms of large families is what to say to the intrusive and lame comments people feel free to make about your troops. We have a mere four weedlets and have nevertheless heard it all.

I find I don't need snappy comebacks, as most people mean no harm (and are actually trying to be nice) and for those who do, I've always found it sufficient to know that I think they're as ignorant, knuckle-dragging and mouth-breathing as they think me, and I rather like being thought ill of by the uncivilized. Raises my cache in my own mind.
