Plots(1)
Narrated by the oldest daughter (Jeanne Crain), the story follows a series of family crises over the years: from how the children over-whelmed their new school's administration office, to the time they threw a hospital into chaos when they arrived for a mass tonsillectomy. There's even a memorable encounter with a birth control advocate. (official distributor synopsis)

A pretty decent family film about how a couple has way too many children - a total of twelve - which affects their behavior and also their relationship with the kids. Probably the version with Steve Martin is better known, but this original one is not bad at all. It's a nice family slapstick that is mainly based on the father of the family.
