My grandparents have 18 kids 15 living today. She had two sets of twins. I always wondered did they all get one on one which children so badly need. My mom sisters say yes and brag about how my grandma would never let them leave the house without looking nice. My mother is the baby of them all at 43 and she told me that her sister really raise her who was a couple years older. It really affects a child's life, because when my mom said it she seemed kind of mad about it.

I've taught classes of about 20 kids, and couldn't give them all what they needed.
Of course, it wasn't a constant thing, like a family situation, where you might have more time for each.

I did rely on the brighter ones to help the average students. The slower kids got more time, but not enough. Not only that, but the squeaky wheel gets the grease. If some of their children are developing well, and have no big issues, they won't get as much attention as those with difficulties.
