This week on We Are Family!, we're meeting one family that's gone against the trend.

As Singapore's birth rate continues to fall, many couples are choosing to have one or two children. But what inspires some parents to keep growing their family? And what does everyday life really look like when there are five children under one roof?

Joining us is Debbie Leung, marketing manager and mother of five, to share her family's story, the realities of juggling work and parenting, the unexpected joys and challenges of raising a larger family, and why, for some Singaporeans, bigger really can be better.
