Her latest description of her upbringing left viewers absolutely stunned, when she claimed that her youngest brother sucked on bacon instead of using a dummy.
She said: “I have 13 siblings. Yes, that’s correct, your ears did not deceive you. I have 13 biological siblings: same mom, same dad, all 14 of us.”
People are always curious about what it was like growing up with so many people in the house, Pear Pear claimed.
Pear Pear explained: “So, everybody always asks when I tell them that I have 13 siblings, their immediate question is just: ‘What was it like having 13 siblings? What was it like growing up in a house with 13 other people?’ And let me tell you.”
She then shared the story of her youngest brother’s favourite “comforting” activity.
She said: “My youngest brother, 14 out of 14, love that kid, but his favourite comforting mechanism as a child, rather than having like a pacifier, he would suck on raw bacon.
She said: “He wouldn’t chew it, he wouldn’t eat it, he would just suck that thing dry, you know what I’m saying. When you have 13 siblings, your parents just give up eventually.”
The video racked up 660,900 likes and commenters couldn’t believe the story.
“They really do give up after the sixth child I think”, said one commenter, while another wrote: “Cheaper by the Dozen irl.”
“I’m very happy to be an only child round about now”, added a third.
