hello mylot friends, today I have been discussing with my boyfriend about how many children we are going to have in the future (maybe it is too early to discuss this question), and he wants to have more than four children, but I want to have only 2. i think 2 children is perfect for me, since 2 children not too much, you can afford their live and education, and when we parents are busy, have to work for a longer time, they can keep each other accompany.
I hate to give birth to too many children, first they will cause too much financial burdent, and secondly, they may fight! and hard to teach them and manage them! i know this since I am growing up with a four children family, when we were fight, we four children fight together, you can imagine how my mother feel at that time! she can hardly manage us without my father's help!
How do you think? how many children do you want? or how many children are you alreay have?

2-3 children is good. Life's so hard these days and if you are just an ordinary employee, it will be very difficult to meet the end. I love children and it will be fun if there'll be more in our house. :)

I want only two or one children so that we can support them because now that life is very hard I think it is not advisable to have more children. In our neighborhoood couples here have many children the average children are 4-7. Sometimes they can't support them in terms of food, education and they are lack of attention.

yeah, agv, you are right, if we want to give birth to child, we should think firstly that whether we can afford them. too many children may put you in porverty, parents should garanttee their live and education.

hello liujuan, thank you for sharing, my ideal children number is the same to you, if it will be one boy and one girl, that's perfect, if they are both boys or both girls, are okay for me too. I like both girls and boys!

Well, my dream number would be four, two boys two girls or three boys plus one girl, but since the one child policy here in China, it sounds impossible. But anyways, I better start from one now.

haha, interesting, yeah, for us who don't have children right now, still have quite a long time to think about how many we want, because we should start from one.

are you sure? as many as we can? i don't think giving birth to too many children is good idea. Can you tell me and exact number of children that you would like to have? But if you don't want to share, I won't make you, thank you.
