 | Irish parents are too fond of their children, who all want a piece of ground to grow food. As a result, farms which were originally big enough to support a man and his family have been divided from generation to generation. From this endless division, people end up with a piece of ground so small they are always in a state between barely having enough and starving. Johann Kohl, 1844
