I want 5, i don't mind to have many kids. My parents have four. However, my husband is older now, so we might have 1 kids, and he will come to this world on 23 August. I'm so exciting to see him. If our fanancial is fine, we will adopt two more childs. I love kids.

I think it’s a personal choice- It depends on each set of parents- Before it was easier and cheaper to raise kids- things were different then- I have only 1 child and I’m happy with that- I do not plan on having more- My parents have 2 me and my older brother- My mom was 1 of 8-- Each of the 8 kids (all but 1- she has no kids) had 2-3 kids- Times change!

It's hard to say how many is enough. I guess it depends on how many can you afford. If you keep having more, can you afford to feed them all and clothe them? Give them the life they deserve. I have four and I would have liked to have 1 or 2 more, but I am unable to because I was warned that it could end up killing me.

For our family, 3 would be maximum. We already have one and expecting No. 2 early next year. I think we like to go with quality rather than quantity. We love kids but think that if we have too many, we would not be able to give them as much time, attention and opportunities.
