So, just considering some world building logictics... beyond Aunty Jenn already being a black sheep for her dangerous public exposure and bearing multiple non-Mastersons... do members of this bloodline mainly get pregnant around the time a new member is initiated and use birth control otherwise?<br/><br/>That would seem to fit with the ages of the different family members, why none have been pregnant for a while and we could also presume Alex and Cassidy's pregnancies all coincide with a member of the extended family turning 16.<br/><br/>It would be a wise move to prevent the clan from growing to an unmanageable size; and it could be, that if you bear a Masterson outside of the initiation of a family member, you're cut from both the family and their fortune, which would be a strong enough deterrent for most.<br/><br/>Lastly, as both Cassidy and Jenn have children conceived outside of the family, how are they and those offspring perceived in the Masterson hierarchy?  Granted, this was just an assumption on Cassidy's part, as she seems like a pure daddy's girl, so I presumed it more likely that a rare hook-up with someone outside the family lead to an unpure child, rather than it being the child of a family member other than Daniel, so I could be completely wrong :D<br/><br/>Cheers<br/>Rowan/LSWSjr
