Do you suppose that they had enough time to devote to each of eighteen children? Less importantly, do you think they had the financial resources to raise eighteen children the way they might want? The Duggar family was not the model that they wanted us to think, was it?
She may "deserved" a vacation (as anyone should) but she chose to have that many children.Even back then (when I was a child) I don't see how they could afford so many, with out financial help. And who takes care of the children when they go on a trip by themselves? Even back then, health insurance alone would have cost a lot, along with food, and housing.
Say what you want about Garry Moore (real name Thomas Garrison Morfit), but I think he exuded nothing but class and warmth to every contestant during his run on IGAS.
Fun fact about the 1960 World series: the Yankees won Game 6, 12-0, to even the Series at 3 games apiece. The Pirates won Game 7 (& the Series) the next day, 10-9.
The first clock is in Bermuda Time in the Atlantic Time Zone, one hour ahead of NY Time in the Eastern Time Zone. Thus, it took around 3 hours! The second clock is in NY.

Very simple. Because people are longing for the days when America was loved and appreciated by Americans who knew they lived in the greatest Country in the world.
And the Television Cameras add ten lbs (pounds) in weight looks wise!!... On the other hand, she sure would get enough exercise running around after all of the kids!! (not to mention ALL THAT late night exercise they both enjoyed so much!?!...) My grandad was one of twenty two kids!! (no tv channels in Ireland back then!!) It's not all that unusual here, up until about 40years ago.... My Dad also came from a rather large family; though it was positively tiny in comparison to ALL those Aunts and Uncles on both sides!! (Granny's {Grandad's wife} parents married rather late - in their mid thirties - but still managed to produce NINE girls!!) He's one of ten who survived to adulthood.... Granny had her first baby at 22 & her last one aged 48!! Thank God they were quite well off (my Grandfather was the single biggest building contractor in the country at the time - most/all of the others were subcontractors (aka "Subs") of his; or subs of his subs; or subs of subs of his subs, and so on: he built most of the Government Contract Jobs like the various hospitals, universities, schools, government buildings, state sponsored housing estates/apartment blocks, etc, etc...) Can you imagine trying to feed, clothe and educate all those kids if you weren't?!....

Trust me. This happened during my childhood with my nine siblings. By the time my youngest sisters came along, we were subjected to mean comments even in church.
Because now people can't afford to do it and depend on government benefits that should go to those who can't help themselves such as the disabled. Fucking like rabbits shouldn't be a free pass to getting money.
I grew up in a family with 8 children. We didn't have enough money for food, shoes, and clothes. My elder brother had to look after the younger children. As I grew older it became my turn. Do I admire parents with large families? NO! My parents generation didn't use birth control but my generation did. Any religion that preaches against birth control needs to look at the population count. There are too many people on Earth and too many people living in poverty. Half of the people living in poverty are children; the same children that the Church demands that must be born. Not one of my siblings have more than 3 children and that includes me.
@@Ozziecatsmom Can you REALLY not see why it would be anyone's business? Because people crank out kids faster than they can earn enough money to raise them, so you and I pay taxes that go into their care. (I just LOVE paying $19,000 per year for shitty health insurance so I can watch other people get FREE health insurance because they can't afford to pay for themselves and their spawn.) There is too much work for the parents so the older kids have to be parents to the younger kids. (Kids should be kids in their childhoods, not parental assistants!) There are already too many people on this poor, abused planet but selfish people who can't put on a condom or take a pill have to keep irresponsibly cranking out kid after kid, who grow up in poverty most of the time, and know no better, so they do the same and the cycle repeats. The stupid religions demand that all kids be born, but yet aren't there to pick up the pieces when the whole family turns to shit because everyone in the family is stressed financially, emotionally, health-wise, and socially. Yes, it IS INDEED all of our business.
In 1960, they could say “The Barrys are the parents of 18 kids,” and expect the audience response to be “Isn’t that adorable!” Now at least half the people (including me) would think “18 kids! What the hell is wrong with you?”
@@kirkreid743 sad what they have done to large family names. My family is 5 children, but my 2 older brothers are way older (like 21ish yrs and 24 years) then my twin and I then our little sister. But we girls where adopted. ANYWAY our family always felt very small, because all our friends growing up are large families. One is 7 Girls then 2 boys (and sadly the poor Mom and so many miscarriages after #4 they thought they would never be able to have any more, then she lost the last baby she would ever be able to have, and she knew that she was getting to up there) and then the other family ended up having 11 children. And lots of other families through the years. Guess it is just common in my area. So there is nothing yucky about it. And Is simply a heartwarming thought. To us when someone says they only have 2 kids we think "that's it?". Guess it just depends on the area you live. To me there is nothing more fun the a lot of little children running around having fun.
I have 4 kids and have gotten a couple of mild digs from my co-workers about it. I remember one saying "Wow, how prolific of you!" Nothing I'd call hostile, but it definitely shows how attitudes have changed in certain circles.
Sidenote: Bill Cullen and Gary Moore were referring to the 1960 World Series; the Pittsburgh Pirates v the New York Yankees. The very next day Bill Mazerozki would hit a home run over Yogi Berra (in the bottom of the ninth) to win the series.
Bill Mazeroski has a surprise in store for Yankee fans the next day. It sounds like Pittsburgh native Bill Cullen didn't think there was any chance the Pirates would win. He was in for a very pleasant surprise as well.
People were so trim before the 1980’s...when the food industry started using additives and preservatives. Corn products subsidized by the federal government FDA. 💥She is slim and trim even after 18 children. And happy.
If anyone notice that up until the 40s American families were large 6 children and up to help work the farms. After world war 2, families became smaller 5 or less. Then around the 90s up until now familes are 2 to 3 children. Lot is to due to ecomonics in the US. Japan now is noticing a shotage of population. The Muslim population on the other hand is getting larger. The US population today is growing because of the influx of illegals.
I just wanna know why we had an annoying reality show about a family with tons of kids, and that fact was just an aside in this episode of "I've Got a Secret". Their secret was stranger than the entire premise of the annoying reality show.. crazy times.
That's what was expected of women back then over all. They didn't have a ton of choices back then. Even today plenty of religious beliefs cause people to think women exist to be baby making machines. The govt isn't helping with that since they're taking away as many abortion clinics as possible and women's health care in general, including giving companies the rights to decide not to give insurance for birth control pills over the company owner's 'deeply held personal beliefs.' If men had the babies, the opposite would be happening. There would be abortion clinics on every other corner, and birth control would be free, etc. But women are always treated as second class citizens.
Jack Val Nonsense. There is an incredible amount of sexism and misogyny going on! Just this week Tucker Carlson, a TV host on Fox News and very popular with the Republicans, were caught having said that women were extremely primitive and needed to be told what to do.
With 18 children, some of that Bufferin might come in handy.
How many people thought Mrs. Berry was pregnant again?
I thought that.
I bet that was Mr. Barry's first thought too...
First thought! Wouldn’t have been surprised if that were the case…
I love how much Mr. and Mrs. Barry smile and laugh.
This is one of my favorites. A great reward for two loving parents.
Mrs Barry deserved a vacation. They seem like a wonderful couple and I’d bet they were wonderful parents.

I love watching old shows like this. Such fun they had.
Wow, hard to believe that woman birthed 18 kids! She looks amazing.
My aunt knew a woman who had 26 bio kids.
That was back in the day when moms worked very, very hard every day cooking, cleaning, and washing. Far fewer conveniences. Much more work to do.
@@baskervillebee6097 - true but still 18 kids would fo number on a woman’s body.
@@grumpyoldlady_rants Yes
She looked fantastic for giving birth to 18 kids!

I watched him growing up and adore him. Always so polite and respectful
Is Garry Moore the same one married to Lucille ball?
@@debbiebryan4288 no - Lucy's second husband was Gary Morton.

What a fun trick! (I'm skeptical of that shot of the plane in the air!)
I remember watching stuff like this with my mom and aunt . My aunt always wanted to be on Queen for a day .
Great memories I think that was in 1959 .
I was sure the secret was gonna be, "Dear, you're not really the father of any of the kids. Hank from down the street is."
"Hi I'm Morey Povich and I've Got a Secret!" LOL
u been watching to much Maury lol
@@mysticpuffy damn it u beat me to it. so just let me say Jerry jerry jerry... or STEEEEEVVVVE! LOL
My Father was named Hank!😆😅
I can remember as a kid watching I've Got a Secret, What's My Line?, and To Tell the Truth.
Cullen: Wait til next year
Bill Mazeroski: I took that personally
The secret should be her saying "#19 is on the way"
The Bermuda trip will tell. Lol!
Too obvious. The fun was scaring the husband.
That’s what I thought at first but it would have been too easy for the panel to guess.
I thought twins.

You would never get through TSA in the time it took for her to get to Bermuda for lunch.
Everyone flies to Bermuda for lunch.
She still did a lot in just two hours...
I've seen this before. What an experience. It should have been a longer time away.

For the wife's secret, I thought she was gonna say "I'm pregnant!" 😵
9:00 “Here is the ocean on the ocean side of the island.” I think I know what he means, but it’s still funny.
Bermuda is out in the middle of the Atlantic. Every side of the island is the ocean side.
My Grandmother had 17 children, my Mom was #7 , I think.
My father in law was one of 13 kids. They lived on a farm. Typical.
this one was adorable.

How does that woman have such a flat stomach after having so many children? I think that's the real secret
Probably something not healthy.
A girdle
how do these vidoes not get milliones of views
Very simple. Because people are longing for the days when America was loved and appreciated by Americans who knew they lived in the greatest Country in the world.
