Lovely lady and a great occupation. :) Yeah 5 would be unusual today... but both my parents had 4+ siblings. Times really have changed, not necessarily for the better either..
@ 0:55 That's funny how Bennett wanted to know where she came from, despite Daly saying the show was running short on time. That just comes to show how well mannered people were when the panel puts the priority of the guest's birthplace over the show's importance!
I graduated from Columbia with a masters in science and mathmatics. And yes I would call you a bigot, because I am black. So take your Nazi attitude and stuff it!!
Five might sound like a lot today, I was one of five kids. My parents were 1 or 9 and 1 of 16. Times change! The invention of the birth control pill, and both parents working have really change the American family!
@Littlegrabner And that begun the decline of the western society since no westerners are being born and only thrid wolrd trash are multiplying. If the west does not dispence with birth control and liberal attitudes the west will no longer be what is was but only a distant memory. Take Heed westerners or else the blacks and muslims will be in control of the world and that would end in disaster.
@calihartley2010 Wow! With a comment like yours, I finally understand what the word "bigot" means. I was only commenting how people no longer have such large families anymore. Who could afford to do it today? You sound like an uneducated bigot, and I do not share any views with someone like you. You are a "war monger" and I hope no one ever listens to what you have to say.
@Littlegrabner Nope not an uneducated bigot. I do have an education. More than you I bet, or ever will. i was just stating the facts and when facts boil down to what is happening in the western world, liberals like you get your knickers in a twist. So go preach your false tolerance somewhere else. When the ghetto black projects or the mosques come to your neighborhoods, then you liberals will be the first to howl. So please spare me the hypocrisy.
Five might sound like a lot of kids today (I was one of five) but my parents were 1 of 9 and 1 of 16. I think the invention of birth control pills has changed the number of kids born today.... that and the necessity for both the man and woman to work.
As of the 2000 census, the national average number of children in an American family was less than two. No state had an average higher than two except Utah (ha). That's a steep decline from back in the fifties and sixties. I think XM is right that most people would consider five a large number of kids these days. You must live in a strict Catholic or Mormon enclave somewhere...

@arnyjk The panel had to guess the occupation -- housewife -- rather than her special title.

A quick Google search reveals Mrs Deitermeyer was still alive in 2006, although had been widowed twenty years previously.
