Seeking Families for TLC's "Kids by the Dozen"

TLC's television series. "Kids by the Dozen" is seeking families with 12 or more children (at least 10 still living at home) to be featured in a new batch of shows. This new casting follows the success of three episodes profiling 12+ kid-families that aired earlier this year. “Kids by the Dozen” is a rare and inspiring glimpse into how large families live, love, grow, and thrive. Most of all, the program documents the day-to-day “operations” (parenting) that goes into surprisingly organized and stable large families.

SEEKING: Families with 12 or more children (twins or other multiples welcome) of any race, ethnicity, religion or creed. At least 10 children must still live at home. Families with colorful personalities and strong opinions, values, principles and traditions. Parents with interesting and unusual stories of their relationship and parenting techniques.
