Hmm - I know the sort of message I'd want to send her, so I must admit that I'd probably ignore it, because it would really stick in my craw having to hold back on the 'Are you kidding me?!' outpouring that is what I would really want to say.
Irresponsible woman - if I were Canada, I'd have sent them back to the US, rather than making her offspring the burden of the taxpayer!
Well...she did say she wouldn't be offended if you told her she is out of line!
I generally "live and let live" for the religious folk -- unless they point their religion uninvited in my direction in a "the Lord can help you" or "this is why you should go to church" or ... something similar.
And then I let them know their "advice" is intrusive and unwelcome. (Especially when it comes in the form of people on our doorstep!)
In her case, I'd either tell her you all were joking around and/or tell her you're only interested in having children that *you* can provide for, not an invisible being. ;-)
