How many children do you want in a family?

Hi ambiepam...thanks for the post. Same with you id like to have at least 3 children that's if we have a choice to make but we never knew where life takes us or how many gifts would GOD give us. So come what may but at least we have some precautions and option to make if we'd like to have small family. I want it to be that way because i want to provide them better life ahead.Have a blessed day.

hehehe youre being so ironic friend just stay calm, of course with boys we dont like them white right, as much as possible i want them to be with that color.

Why does the colour of their skin make a difference? How are you going to manage 2 children with different skin colours (as in, give birth) unless you're planning on adoption?

I do agree with you fairygreen...It's really hard to raise a child..i've been go through with it now due to high commodities on baby's product most likely to milk products that ive been using now but at least we do survive. Just that my income is quite enough for his needs and on our family as well. So, like you i prefer to have at least a minimum of 2 and maximum of 3. Looking forward with that number of children i know i could give them better life ahead.Thanks for you post and have a blessed day.

I do agree that you have to be more careful not to spoil an only child. It can actually take a lot of work to keep them from becoming that stereotypical spoiled brat, but I know some very nice people that grew up only children as well. I think the idea of putting all my attention on him is important to me, and that's part of why I want to have only one. I have some serious health problems, and I think having more than one child to take care of would result in my not being able to properly give them the time and energy they deserve.

I guess having one child would turn out to be a spoiled brat...though not all but for a few.I guess you should add at least one child so that your child now could have a playmate. Though you have a lot of friends with child who socialize him but it a different thing for a brother or sister perhaps. I don't know if you'd agree the idea but if youd happy with one then thats okey then, in that way you could put your whole attention to him. Fighting for brothers or sisters is a natural thing i guess for growing up but it depends on us parents how to take things fine for both of them. I for sure they would listen if we'd talked things to them,hope this do.But anyway, thanks for your post and have a blessed day.

Hi lyndee. I do agree with you it is so hard to raise children now a days. Even me i just this thought that one is enough for now a days because of high commodities.It is a tough one. Maybe i could have another one hopefully it would be a girl then in a couple of 2-3 years from now. Thanks for your post and have a blessed day.

High commodities is already problem so obviously we have also to do our part. Thank you for marking me best response. Good luck.

Hi micaella. Congratulations.I do agree with you.Two is enough and your were blessed to have a baby boy and girl. Thats so nice.Thanks for your post and have a blessed day.

Especially in big cities in China,family planning is very strictly carried out.

Hi mandarin, thanks for sharing a bit. Im hoping that you would decide to have another one so that your baby can now have a playmate. :D Have a blessed day.

Definitely yes, having one child is more convenient and economical. But i felt it would be a lonely part for the child being the only one.Though you gonna give him/her the full attention she/he needed but being the only child, he/she would most likely like to have a playmate sister or brother. Some tends to become spoiled brat though not all but there are some. Me, honestly i would prefer to have at least 2 child.Thanks for sharing a bit. Have a blessed day.

I do agree with you babykay.Now, that i have my first baby boy i do hope i could have a baby girl but in a couple of 3-4 years after. It's not an easy thing raising a child, it takes to be financially able to support one's need all throughout.Thanks for your post and be happy as always.

Hello bobbyjoe. Oh! that was a big family, I can't imagine if im going to have more than a dozen of kids. But if financially able then why not..he.he.he.but i can't afford to have that many since i would lose my figure..he.he.he.just kidding.Same with you im contented with one kid for now that we faced high commodities on the market.Thanks for you post and have a blessed day.

Hello cefaz. Just pray hard on it cefaz, i certainly believe that a time will come, a right time to conceive for a child will come to you unexpectedly and im praying it for you also. Just believe in the miracle of prayer. Like me i want you also to feel that wonderful feeling of being a mother, the excitement, the pain, the tension and everything, it was so great though there are some barriers come but above all its worthy to be called a mother.Thanks for your post and have a blessed day.

I do agree with you michael.Thanks for sharing a bit. Have a blessed day.

Hello tseavellanosa. I do agree with you on it "the more, the merried" but as long as the parents can afford to support the children all throughout thats nothing to worry about. But these days you could be able to see lots of street children and i myself can ask where are the parents of this children? why do at a young age the work along the streets?I really feel so pity of this kids roaming around and asking for alms. As parents we should be as well as responsible of having a children and so sad to say lot of parents dont take this seriously.Have a blessed day.

Hi russelcrowe. I do agree with you on it. Those old times we say they also encounter financial crisis but not so much financial crisis we have faced now a days as the commodities are getting higher and higher and wages are not that big to compensate on our daily expenditures. So, like you being a responsible parent id like to have less child so that i could be able to give a better future ahead especially in their needs.Have a blessed day.

Well..it's true..i have that feeling also gemmygirl. When i have my 1st baby boy...after having this high commodoties in raising a child we talked things with my partner and agreed that 1 would be enough as for now.Maybe we'd like to have another one but in span of 2-3 years time. For now we are happy to have this son of mine. I would considered myself as one of the most grateful mothers in the world for i was blessed with a son.

Well the more you aim for a girl the more youll be granted with boys...for a lot of family gone through this...until their family became big in aiming for a girl.But in anyway as long as you can support your child all throughout then it is okey to have another one, if the 3rd one is still a boy, who knows the 4th one is a princess already. Im hoping for a baby girl for you then. Thanks for sharing a bit. Have a blessed day.

I do agree with you santhosho. Thanks for your post . Have a blessed day.

Hi jnallen....same with you i have my first son he is 1 year and 7 months old now.We haven't take into chances of having a next child for now also for financial aspects...maybe in a couple of 2-3 years after.Truly i agree with you...my son is also my life...my precious thing...my everything.....im so grateful for his coming into our lives.Thanks for your post and have a blessed day.

Well thats nice of you then..as they say the more the merrier it would be having a big family. As long as you can met the needs of everyone well that would be fine but if having a big family and encounter some difficulties especially in financial aspects id rather to have small family. Thanks for sharing. Goodluck and have a blessed day.
