never heard of this story, but iam wondering something, are they extremly rich?

Well, that's a hard question to answer.
As far as I know, neither of them works, although they're supported by donations from 'well-wishers.'
They don't recieve any kind of welfare.

God, how does she do it? The thought of having one child is a bit scary to me (I do want to have one, but only one). Are all the children healthy?

Yes, thankfully all the children are healthy.
Only Michelle and Jim Bob will know where they get the time to breed like this. Although I don't think that they have a TV or the internet...
A television in the bedroom is the best kind of contraceptive there is.
Ohh, not now Kim Bob, America's Next Top Model!

Do you think it's possible for two parents to give 17 children the time and attention that they deserve?

She's probably forgotten what it's like NOT to be carrying a child.

You know, I think that there could be a lot of truth to that statement.
