Josh and Anna Duggar came to fame on TLC reality series 19 Kids & Counting. The program follows Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar and their 19 children, whose ages range from 5 to 26. Josh Duggar is the eldest child, and works for the Family Research Council in Washington, D.C.

"I've done the math, and there's no way we can have 20 kids that I can figure," the reality star told People. "But the reason most people don't have a large family is because they feel the financial pressures. It's tough to have so many kids in today's world."

"Is there pressure? Sure, there is. But one of the biggest blessings is to have kids and teach them to serve God and others be the best they can be," he opined. "You can have a career, and be famous and have lots of money, but that will fade. Children will be there."
