Meanwhile, the Post profiles a “typical procreative” Borough Park couple:

Faye and Shlomo Cisner are a typical procreative Borough Park couple: They have eight kids, and more could be on the way.

“It is a possibility,” Faye Cisner. “Thank God. God gives. We accept.”

Faye is 33, Shlomo 35.

They have six boys and two girls — including a set of twins.

The youngest, Chaim, is 10 months old. There’s also Joseph, 2; Reuben, 4; Rachel, 5; Meir, 7; Jacob, 8; and twins Nisson and Yocheved, who are 10.

The Cisners, who are Orthodox Jews, said they are carrying on the Jewish tradition of having many children. And that’s what many do in Borough Park.

. . .

Faye starts every morning doing the never-ending load of laundry for 10 people.

The kids eat in two shifts, and she likened the experience to serving people in a restaurant. The six older children board four different buses to get to and from school.

“There’s juggling. It gets a bit overwhelming. But it’s an amazing experience,” Faye said.
