That education has a high emphasis within mormon families, however, with resources becoming tighter and more scare, if that emphasis wasn't there (such as we have in the church), it seems to make sense that the larger the family the less educational attainment would make sense.

It noted that the larger the family the lower the educational attainment of the children. The exception that researchers found to this trend were Mormons.
