"I married here in Bolivia, I arrived from Belize when I was 17 and got married at 23. I have got 12 kids, but four of them are married and went to live in Miraculous [another colony].Here families are big, I know many Bolivians who have just one or two kids... here in the way we live is not that difficult to have kids, is it? And if not my kids who is gonna help me when old? I’ll help them to have a house, to have some land, to be peaceful... And so then they’ll help me back, right? If I was living in town, then it would bebetter to have just one or two, or no one, but for helping me on the land, it’s different stuff.There in Miraculous there’s a minister, Pedro Bauman, who has 19, I think" Gerardo Banman, 57
